Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Well I'm so glad she's doing so well with her helmet!! That's awesome!! How long do they expect her to have to wear it? I hope Wayd doesn't have to be in his much more than 3 months. I just hope he has good growth spurts during his helmet days so we can get it off ASAP! Look I'm already talking about getting it off and we haven't even begun!! I will probably kiss his head raw when we have the hour off a day!! ha!! Poor guy! Thanks for letting me know how Sophie's been doing. I'm sure I'll come up with lots of questions once we're in ours!! Lacy > > > > My Sophie has been in her starband 1 week tomorrow.
