Ava's First Piggy Tails

It's very important to document the first time you can put your little girl's hair in

pigtails - no matter how wispy they may be! I cut her hair shortly after this, but it was fun for a day!

Brief Synopsis

Dallin developed normally until about 18 months of age when his pediatrician labeled him as "failure to thrive". By the time Dallin was 3 he had lost his ability to talk and had developed several autistic-type traits. Our neurologist diagnosed him as having ASD at 3 years old. Dallin was diagnosed with suspected mitochondrial dysfunction when he was 8. It's been quite the roller coaster ride. There are still many dreams that haven't been fulfilled but we continue on the path to help Dallin reach his full potential. No matter what the future brings we love our boy completely.
