It's On...

Damon is destined to be a football player.  I'm thinking these pictures are going to be seen on ESPN some day when they're doing a story on Damon's football career:)

He will wear the helmet 23 hours a day, which gives us one hour to clean the helmet and bathe him.  The first four days he wears it for a few hours on and one hour off...day 5 is full time.  We'll be checking his growth weekly at the doctor, and eventually every other week for a few months.  Helmets are typically worn 3-5 months depending on the child and how fast their head grows.  The helmet just makes contact with the parts of his head that stick out so the other (flat) parts of his head will do the growing.

Don knew exactly what he wanted the helmet to look like, so when he went to the Air Force game, he picked up some helmet decals from the equipment manager...these are official Air Force helmet decals! View Album for more pictures.
