The Royal Wedding

Today, the Royal Wedding of William and Catherine made news all over the country. Although it wasn't mentioned on CNN (yet--ha), our little family held a royal wedding of our own...Prince Gavin married his Doc Band today ;-)
We brought it home and decorated it to do our Prince justice. He has a stunt helmet theme going.... perfect for the baby of a family of three boys...don't you think?

Owen joined us early this morning. Dad and Liam came a bit later. All of the British guys in the house donned British flag shirts for both Royal Weddings today. The staff at Cranial Technologies, thought that was really cute.

Gavin with Dad after the final adjustments to his Doc Band were made.

Our version of "Beefeaters." Owen & Liam are ready to protect Prince Gavin!

Is Owen's face not hilarious? I would be scared for Liam if the swords weren't foam and if I didn't know how very much Owen loves his little bro.

After all the paint and Modge Podge dried, I did a photoshoot with the Baby of the Day to show off the work Owen and I put into the "hat." For any of you who don't know what the Doc Band is, Gavin needs it to help correct his headshape. Because of the torticollis (tight, short neck muscle on one side), he tilts his head instead of looking straight on AND he favors looking to the right. Because of the latter, he usually sleeps in one position at night. Because he is such an AWESOME sleeper, logging 11+ hours a night, his little head is slightly flat on one side, his ears aren't even, and his facial features aren't symmetrical. All slight. We still think he is perfect, but because it could get worse instead of better, opted to use the Doc Band for 5-8 weeks until his head is a bit more solid. Once the Band comes off, he will have a rounder head and be finished with his Physical Therapy, so the problem should resolve and he will be 100% again!

He wears his crown well!
