Sophie is helmet free!!!
Yep!!
     We had our follow up in St. Louis today and as of 10:30 this morning we are DONE!!!!!!!!!!!! Dr. Kane (PS) said he still wants to track her forehead change because it's still bossy. He started out saying we could stay in the helmet until it didn't fit anymore, but it's already almost too tight, so he said to just keep it off. I'm so so so so so happy! It didn't really hit me until about 10 minutes after we were back on the road towards home and then I shed a few happy tears. We don't have to go back until April 19th when they will see her for her one year follow up and do a repeat CT.
