A bin full of animals...

We're headed to the Sweet 16!

Although it looks like she's more into whatever is going on outside, Kendall enjoyed watching the games with us this weekend! She was clapping, cheering, and handing out high fives to anyone that would raise a hand. With the Aztecs in the Sweet 16, we'll be enjoying more games next weekend!

Catch it!

About a month ago my mom taught Kendall to blow kisses. As with any new thing, she did it a lot at first, but then stopped spreading the love. It seems to be back in style as she's started doing it again!

Please ignore my annoying, nasally voice!

I'm Free!!

Kendall's head has been officially freed!

After noticing a bright red spot on Kendall's forehead Thursday night, we spent part of Friday afternoon at the doctor's office having her helmet examined. We thought that it was rubbing her (which it was), and the orthopedist suspected it was from her head growth (which it was!). The adjusted the helmet and then decided to scan her just to see where she was at. Surprisingly, Kendall had a growth spurt over the past few months, and the growth had been in all of the right places! Check out her scan - the blue line represents her current head, while the red line represents where we started:

Not only had her head circumference increased by almost a centimeter, but the growth had occurred where we wanted it - in the right front and left rear quadrants. The 6.0 measurement that I talked about last month was down to 2.8!! The orthopedist was shocked! She told us that her measurement is only 3.3, and that this was likely as good as we were going to get. What we thought was going to be a 4 month ordeal was quickly shortened to an easy 9 weeks!

Now, we're not totally out of the woods as we still have the Torticollis to deal with. Her head tilt is still about 5% and the facial asymmetry is still a bit noticeable to those who are looking for it. This will likely be an ongoing problem and we have to work with her on a daily basis to strengthen her neck muscles.

She's been very patient with all of this, and has come such a long way. We're grateful that things weren't a lot worse and that she's a happy, healthy girl! And, it really is nice to see that baby mullet all day long!
