Owen is a king...or at least he thinks he is with his new BUMBO chair. As you might already know, Owen has plagiocephaly, which is a abnormal flattening of the head due to a number of reasons. His flattening is because he spent so much time sleeping in his car seat as a little munchkin due to his tummy trouble and might have had some shortening of his neck muscles on one side. So we have been working with Children's Care Hospital in Sioux Falls to see if he will need a helmet to fix the problem. (So far, we don't need one and are working on repositioning, neck exercises and tummy time, etc). So the "helmet guy" at CCH told us to look into this Bumbo chair to sit Owen in to encourage sitting by himself. It is his THRONE. He loves it! All he needs now is a Burger King crown....
