3 millimeters!

That's how much Jack's head has grown in 2 weeks - this is good - we are trucking right along in helmet-ville! 

I brought up our August vacation and the fact that we'd be going from PA to SC - where it will be HOT HOT HOT and at first the orthotist was just very matter of fact "he'll be fine, and you can take it off as needed if he gets overheated" and I was so bummed because I was hoping she'd say "oh, you''ll probably be done by then" but then she DID say "and you could be done by then anyway" so that made me happy!

Grow Jack's head, grow!  (It is noticeably better too - was never too bad to begin with so I am hoping we ARE done by early August.  All depends on how much and how fast his little noggin grows - the helmet guides growth but can only do so if there IS growth.)

Oh and pic below is us cheating on Sunday - we were at an arts festival and took it off to air out his head, it was hot.  So he enjoyed a little breeze through his silky soft hair!

Wheee!

    I'm glad that the helmet is doing its job and that Jack's head is growing too!  Fingers are crossed that he's done with the head gear before your vacation!

    Your family pic is so darn cute!!!!  Yeah for a little breeze through the hair!
