Brace yourself.

Yipppeeee.... we got the okay by Dr. Fitch today to take off Mackenzie's brace. In the big scheme of things - 6 weeks in a brace was nothing. Honestly, it flew by! The x-ray showed great progress. We will go back in 2 months for another x-ray, just to assure things are still progressing nicely.

In hopes that we would get the green light, I spent last night going through all of her clothes.... it felt like Christmas! After her hour long bath today I was determined to put her in something that allowed her to kick her legs as freely as possible.

Here are some before and after pictures... forgive me, I was a bit camera happy.


Her 1st tubby after 6 weeks worth of sponge baths....

I'm scrubbed so hard her skin was red.... she soaked so long her whole body was wrinkly.

Awwwww......

She still looks like a frog princess!

Realizing she can now stretch out her legs!

Not so sure?!?

So nice and clean.

Perfect!
