- I forgot my wallet at home on our initial appointment...
- The scan was postponed 2 weeks while waiting to hear from insurance..
- Insurance approved the helmet for ME...
- Insurance denied coverage for Ez, and we had to pay out of pocket...
- Ezra woke up with a horrible runny nose and cold the day we picked up the helmet...
- between teeth, vacation, and a cold he is totally out of whack with sleeping...
The specialist at Children's said that the helmet is harder on the parents than the baby. So far, I'd say that she is right. Ezra seems pretty much unphased by his new accessory. I know that I will get used to it soon enough, but for right now it is kind of hard. My baby doesn't look like himself... His right eye is pushed down a little and his cheeks are squished. The helmet takes over his head and makes his face look different. Having that said, no amount of plastic can take away his happy smile, bright eyes, kissable cheeks, and perfect little nose!
My tears have been shed and now it is time to be strong.

Within days the helmet became a part of Ez. Now when he doesn't have it on he looks weird. We love the way it frames his face and accentuates his sweet cheeks. We love the extra protection it gives him when he crashes. It does make him hot, sweaty, and stinky... but we know it is worth it.
