Just Like Dad

As most of you probably know already, Ryan had to be put in a helmet a couple of weeks ago. It was for a flat spot that was forming on the back of his head and causing his skull bones to grow wider than they should. It's mostly cosmetic and can prevent it from getting worse. Andy and I were really stressed out about it because we didn't want it to bother Ryan, and of course for selfish reasons (like wanting to kiss his sweet little head and snuggle him without that hard helmet in the way). However, he transitioned great into the helmet and really didn't seem to mind it too much. We think he just likes to be like his dad and wear a helmet like the cool football players :)

Thanks for everyone's support of our decision to put him in the helmet, and for the prayers that it will correct the flat spot quickly! We had our first check-up yesterday and Ryan is already making great improvements!

Here's a few pics of Ryan in his helmet! I picked blue to bring out his eyes....
