Harness Free!

On Thursday, we took Taylor to another follow up appointment for her hip, and good news...she is harness free for good! We finished out the last stage of sleeping with it only at night...now she doesn't have to wear it at all. We are so grateful her hip healed so quickly and so well. Now we just have to keep going back for follow up appointments until she is about 2-3 years of age. They want to make sure her bones are developing properly and especially want to monitor her hip as she begins to walk. There is a very little chance that her hip could go back to being worse...but that is why they monitor her until she is older.

So, Yeah! We are so excited for Taylor...even then she probably had no clue she even wore it...but more exciting for us!

Look at the progression in her leg!

Congrats! Even though she'll never remember the brace, it's gotta feel good for her and for you. She's going to be crawling in no time!

GO TAYLOR!! Guess what? We're making a last-minute trip to Utah for Christmas. Yipee!! We're flying in on Christmas Eve. Maybe we'll be able to see you somehow. Jared leaves on Wednesday and I leave Friday morning. I want to see little Taylor!! The last time I saw her was a few hours before her birth!!

That is wonderful news!! It is good that she is free! It was fun to look at all the pictures side by side. You can see how she has really grown!
