Little Sis is offically a "DOC Band Graduate" 

Here are some quick pics of our cute little girl now.

Make a note of the curly flowing hair!

Little Sis' New Adventure

Last week Little Sis was barely transitioning between pieces of furniture while cruising, but on Wed this past week she took three steps on her own to get a push toy.  On Thursday she took 6 steps during her physical therapy session.  And then this is video from today!

She is walking ten to twelve feet at a time now!  As soon as she learns to stand independently without pulling up we will be done with crawling for good I feel.



Swimming Lessons



Exit Appointment

We went to Dallas today for our very last appointment with Cranial Tech for Little Sis' Doc Band.  We still have to wear it for two more weeks, but for all official purposes she is graduated.

  

Daddy flew with Little Sis and I while Pockets stayed at home with Ryan's parents

  

Here she is in her stocking cover just hanging out waiting for her photo shoot!

This is the special DSI software and imaging equipment that they use to take a panoramic pictures both at the beginning of treatment and then again today at the exit. 

Waiting for all the pictures to finish populating

Here is the front view. Notice the very narrow face in the left picture and a more rounded face now.

Notice in the picture on the left  the deep indention at the back/base of the skull and how it has filled in now

Here is the large bump she use to have in the back of her skull and how much flatter it is now.

Probably the greatest change here.  This pictures are sized to be the same size, but it sure looks like her head now (on the right) looks smaller than it use to.  Also you can see the very  oval shape before and now it is alot wider in the back and rounded. 

Again we were waiting so we took a photo opportunity!

Last was the presentation of our certificate!

Well like I said, we still need to wear our DOC band for two more weeks so look for a celebration post coming soon.

Head injury

William had his first head injury today.  He had just finished an amazing swim lesson where he dove to get a toy and floated on his back for the first time ever.  He was so excited that he started running and fell.  His still had on his goggles though so unfortunately they left a huge gash in his eye. 

The doctor said that stiches would leave less of a scar, but that we would have to go the hosipital since it was on his face.  Instead we tried derma bond.  It was a scary few moments and much more difficult that we all imagined, but it was fine in the end.  William was such a trooper.  The down side now is that he will have to wait 3-5 days until he can get in the pool agian so he has to miss all week of lessons. 

Hopefully this won't deter his spirts though too much and next Monday he will be ready to jump right back in where he left off today.
