Panty Hose

I'm sure you are thinking...what kind of title is that? But panty hose it is. Last week I had to take James to get his dsi photo done so that they can make his cranial band. Some of the sweet girls in my bible study prepared me a bit for what to expect, but other than that I had no clue what this appointment would be like. My friend Shannon warned me that they put panty hose over his head before taking the photos. I figured they put it over the top but certainly not over his entire head. I was wrong.



As you can see they pulled the panty hose right over his face. I thought he would freak out, but not a peep. He stayed calm the whole time. I on the other hand had tears streaming down my face while he was sitting there getting the pictures done. It took all of five minutes, but it just made me sad looking at my sweet baby. He could open his eyes underneath the stocking and he was just looking at me like "what is going on".

It was pretty neat though how they do this. They sat him on that seat and there were cameras all around him that took pictures at the same time. From that they make a mold of James' head and create his band. So it will be a perfect fit for his head. We go next Thursday to get the band and for them to teach me all that I need to know. And then my little buggy will be in his band for about 8 weeks. I'm anxious to start this journey. God has already begun opening my eyes to so many things and teaching me so much through this little boy. I'm so thankful for that!
