Maddie's New "Hat"

When you hear that someone you love needs to wear corrective gear you, of course, feel concern for their condition and how it will affect them. But you also worry about how others will treat them (and you if you are honest with yourself.) So when my sister called to say that one of the twins, Maddie had to where a helmet to correct her very lopsided, misshapen head, I naturally felt all those things. Until I got this picture.....
Could she look any cuter?!!? Maybe she'll start a new trend for babies. And the great news is that after just a few days her head is already reshaping itself. So a little "protection" now will prevent her from ridicule and self consciousness later.
Life is good!

How cute is she?! How long does she have to wear it for? It certainly seems like it's not bothering her one bit and that's good.
You are right...she is pecious and rocks that helmet!
I've known several kiddos who wear the helmet for a few months and they look universally adorable - your niece is no exception!
It looks like I might be in Seattle at the end of the month for work - drop me a line at morningstarje at gmail and maybe we can meet up for dinner? It would be so fun to meet you in person!
Jamie is right Diane. She'll need to wear it 3-4 months but my sister said after just a few days they can see a big difference. Luckily Maddox (her twin brother) doesn't have to wear one or they would be knocking heads all day long:-)
