Cohen's Helmet

On Friday we got Cohen's helmet. He seems to be tolerating it just fine. The first couple of days he had to wear it for 1 hour and then have it off for an hour alternating throughout the day. He was not supposed to wear it for naps or for sleeping at night. Today he has to alternate at 2 hour intervals and still not wear it for naps or at bedtime. I believe by day 6 he will be wearing it all day and night. I am still feeling badly about it and I pray that it does what it's supposed to do. His head was/is pretty flat on the back/side and I know it would take forever and possibly never go back to shape and we just didn't want to give kids any ammo to tease him when he gets older or for him to resent us for not doing anything about it. It was a tough decision to make but now we've made it and if we just stick to it for the next 3 or so months he'll never have to wear it again. Sometimes the decisions in life we have to make as parents are hard ones but they are most always to help our children...not to hinder them. So, it is out of love for our little boy that we did this. We love you Cohen and you are going to have the roundest, cutest head around when you are finished with this!!! XOXOXO





Good morning little ones!! Cuddling in the morning after waking up. These pictures were taken on Friday morning before Cohen got his helmet.
Just as I clicked the camera Cohen grabbed Ethan's pants and pulled at them!! I thought it was a funny picture!!
You can't see me!!
Amazing eyes sweet pea!
Too cute
It looks as if Ethan is telling Cohen that "It'll be OK brother"!!
Bashful.
My other cutie pie!! (aka. chicken butt!)
