Max and his Fancy Hat




Our little man has a fancy new hat! Because of the way Max laid inside me, his head is a little flat in the back, particularly on the right side so.....he gets to wear this fancy hat (DOC Band) for a couple of months so that his head can reshape itself. It has been harder for me to make him wear it then it has been for him. He is such a little trooper! He has to wear it 23 hours a day but we can take it off for bath time, swimming, or any special occasion. We go to the doctor every 2 weeks so they can measure and make adjustments to the band as his head changes shape. He just turned 8 months old and he is an amazing little guy. Everyday we notice something different. He has become much more mobile as he loves to sit up, roll around, get up on his hands and knees and most of all he loves to stand! His little personality is changing so much and he is getting be more and more independent. He loves to laugh and talk and he got his first tooth! We never dreamed we could love this little guy as much as we do.....he has definitely stolen our hearts!
Eric is doing great at work and loving his job. We are grateful that his company is strong and doing well! We are starting to do some work in our yard and some planting. Being a homeowner sure can be a lot of work! Life is great and we have much to be thankful for!
