(pre-operative on left, post-op on right)
We had our post-operative appointment with Cranial Tech today. They took pictures like the first time so we thought it would be cool for you to be able to see them in comparison. The staff was very excited to see that the surgery already began to fix his head shape! The real reason for this appointment was to take a DSI (Digital Surface Image). This contraption is pretty cool and involves Owen sitting on a stool with cameras all around and they all snap at the same time to get a 360-degree digital image of his head. The only problem with this is that he has to wear a stocking over his entire head to get smooth image. I mean, what infant would not freak out about that? The worst part was that they sent us back to the room to review the images and a few minutes later, after Owen fell asleep in my arms, they came knocking on our door and said that they needed to do it again. Needless to say, he screamed the entire time, both times. Poor kid. And that's not all as far as today's extravaganzas, I had to take him to the doc today because he has an ear infection. Shoo-wee! What a day!

Great to see the comparison.
So that's why he was pulling on that ear! We'll keep praying.
UNREAL. His whole facial structure and everything looks so different! Still just as adorable, though : ) Thanks for posting these. So, so thankful that everything went so well and he's recovering so beautifully. Hope the ear infection clears up quickly!
