Just over 2 months after surgery

So, we are just over 2 months  post-surgery for Baby Girl.  She has started having headaches.  

We don't see the surgeon for follow-up until the end of February, after we get another MRI.  It is so hard to see her in pain again, even if the headaches are not as bad as before.

I think all the pressure that was going on in her head was causing some delays in her development.  She has started eating more, putting on a couple of pounds, filling out a little bit finally.  Other changes are happening as well, and she is getting taller.  Soon, I'll be the shortest one in the house. 

School is a bit of a stress these days for her - girl drama.  She was able to resume normal activities since surgery.  Ice skating, downhill skiing, riding her horse, and even went deer hunting.  She just has to wear a helmet with most activities (except hunting).  

So, we wait patiently until we are able to see the Doc again.
