Taelor's Head
Taelor had Left Torticollis which made it so she only wanted to lay on one side of her head, which in turn caused Plagiocephaly. She always slept on the right side which made that side flat. The doctors had us prop her so she would sleep in the other side but it never lasted long. She slept how she wanted. When we moved back to St. George Taelors new doctor had us going to physical therapy to help the torticollis. Her head corrected itself to a certain point and then stopped. Here are some pictures that show how it has changed. The bottom picture was taken in October 2008 and the top one was in January 2009. With the others in order in between. We decided to put her in a helmet to correct it the rest of the way. I will post pictures of that later.

She is so cute hopefully we can get down there soon. With our flood it might be a month or so love you guys
Jayden had almost the same thing when he was a newborn. His left side was starting to flatten and the doctors were worried that if it continued, it could possibly harm his line of vision. We did a couple exercies regularly to try to encourage him to sleep on the other side, but that only lasted a little bit. Taelor is SO CUTE!!! We need to plan on coming to visit you guys and your new house soon! :)
