Physical Therapy

When Deacon had his 2 month check up last week, the doctor said that the right side of his head is a little bit flatter than the left. You can hardly notice it, but it is still something we need to take care of. After playing around with him for a bit, he decided that Deacon favors his right side more, and it's because the muscle in his neck is a little bit tight. He thought it might have something to do with him being stuck in the birth canal during labor. So he wanted us to take him to Physical Therapy so they could show us some stretches and exercises that will help him. Well, today was his first day and he LOVED it! It was so cute! His appointment was at 2:30 and Aubrey had an appointment at the same hospital at 3:00 so her and Mom came with me. I'm so glad they did because Mom brought her camera and got some of the cutest pictures! Before we got started the physical therapist sat with us and asked some questions and told us what he would be doing. The whole time Deacon was listening very intently. I think he knew we were there for him, it was so cute! The whole time he was working with him and showing us the stretches Deacon was very cooperative. We have another appointment in 2 weeks to see how he is doing. It's very important that we do his stretches everyday. Enjoy the pics!

He was so exhausted after all that exercise, he fell right to sleep in the hospital lobby.

Oh my gosh Bree this is the cutest thing ever. I love you Bree Bree! SO dang cute!!! I loved that he was so grown up during his appointment. SO cute!!!! Looks like he is a very calm little man just like his mommy. He looks so much like Travy but I can see in his eyes his own little spirit is SO strong! Please give him so many kisses for me. You better make sure to tell him they are from me too. Ah, I love the way he looks at you!
