Journal entry by Casey Danielson —
Today we had another appt with the helmet specialists. Kallen has been making progress with the reshaping of his skull! So much so that he is graduating into his second helmet!! We should be getting it next week. In less than a month we go back to mayo for a follow up. His incision is fully closed and no more scabs. We are very happy to say that we haven't really had any set backs developmentally for kallen since getting the helmet. We were worried he wouldn't want to try sitting up on his own and that he would be delayed with crawling. Thankfully we have kept right on track. Kallen can sit on his own, he isn't fully crawling but hes arms crawling and is attempting to crawl more and more each day. Hes a little babblebox too. Hes proficient in rolling he can basically get anywhere he wants to and quickly by rolling. Now we are working on sleeping through the night, we do feel that his helmet is hindering his ability to sleep fully through the night but we are working on different things to help. The red is where we started and the blue is today's results
