Happy Halloween!

 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Week 12...ONLY 7 MORE DAYS!!!

We are in the home stretch, only 7 days to go! :-D

 

 

 

I mean come on....look how round and perfect her little head is!! It's so exciting to see the amazing difference, and in only 12 weeks!

 

Our graduation is on 11/7 :) I'm going to be sad to say goodbye to Teresa, she's been so great! But I am excited to start this next chapter in her life with a beautiful noggin! Now we're going to have to start dealing with bumps and bruises when she fall :-/ YIKES!

 

This picture is from April, she was three months old. Look how flat! How did we not notice and realize it was an issue?! We thought she was a little flat, but thought it was just her shape. I sure am glad our pediatrician told us at her 4 month appointment that we should have her looked at. This has been such a great experience and made such a big difference!

 

Alright...I'll post some graduation and before/after pics next week. Wow...can't believe we're almost done ;)

Week 11...13 more days!!!!!

Bela's exit/graduation appointment is scheduled 11/6 at 9:30! WOO-HOO! While time has flown by and the results are beyond what we could have imagined and its been painless and easy, we're ready for her to be done! It's getting harder each day to put her helmet back on after her bath because she looks so cute without it. I think it's just because I know we're so close to the end I'm excited and anxious for the next chapter!

 

Teresa was again so thrilled with the progress from two weeks ago. Isabela's head is very cooperative (lol) and does what she asks! The back has grown out more and her circumference of her head grew a few more cm which is what they want to see!

 

 

 

I cannot wait to have her pictures taken again and compared at the clinic at her exit appointment. It's going to be so amazing to look it over with Teresa and hear what she has to say :-D

 

Isabela has a very special outfit picked out for graduation...daddy thinks I'm silly, but it's a big day!!!!

Week 10 already? Where did week 9 go?!?!?

This past week flew by in the blink of an eye. I cannot believe it's week 10 already!

 

 

 

 She is going so wiggly it's hard to take the pictures now. Sorry they're blurry again!

You can see, especially on the left side, that she still needs to fill in on the bottom. But WOW, since our last appointment, 10/12, we have seen changes.

 

 

Here is her left profile again from week 9... 

I know her hair isn't as wet in this weeks picture, but I think you can still see a slight difference. I can!! :-D That makes me one happy mama!

 

I'm going to call Cranial Tech and set our exit appointment. So exciting!!!!!!!!

Week 9

This is a few days late...we have a cranky teething baby on our hands! Poor thing, these teeth just won't pop out! She'll be 9 months on Saturday the 13th and she is still awaiting her first tooth! But to the topic at hand....

 

We had our appointment yesterday and we didn't set our appointment yet, but Isabela graduates from her band the week of 10/5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was hoping because she's doing so great we could be done at our next visit, but that's fine. These last four weeks are going to just fly by!

 

Teresa asked how we thought she's doing and I told her I might be crazy but over the last 3-4 days I noticed that the bottom seemed to have rounded out a lot. She did her exam and guess what...I'm not crazy! She definitely agreed that it had come out more, wasn't as flat.

 

 

My little munchkin wouldn't stay still so that's why these are a bit blurry

 

You can really see in this picture where she still needs to round out. It's looking better but these last 4 weeks should really help. Teresa said that by shaving our more foam in that area, the skull will continue to grow there. She wants to see a little more narrowness through her forehead and sides and have it move to the back.

 

 

My husband said she had a bit of "Baby Stewie" head from Family Guy before! She was so much wider on the sides. Now she is much more proportional but Teresa thinks we can get some further results!

 

Overall, great visit...so proud of her!!

Looking great at 8 (weeks)!

We celebrated 8 weeks in our band on Tuesday

 

 

I put a headband on her today while her helmet was off. OMG she looked AMAZING!! I cannot wait for her helmet to be off. I still know that I will miss it, in some way, but man I am so excited! We are so close :)

 

We still think she looks just like her daddy, but with the changes made, she is beginning to look more like me (YAY!).
