It wasn't a big surgery but that is what the Drs. called it and she was so excited that she had to get "surgery"! Hailey was tongue tied, the skin under her tongue was too tight and it needed to be cut! So on New Years Eve morning she got to get it done. Poor girl has always had a problem saying some of her sounds and she had to train her mouth to get the sounds out. Now hopefully it will be a little easier for her! She did so good and the Dr. said that it was the biggest difference in anyone that she had ever seen in how much farther she could stick her tongue out. So here is a before and after picture of her. In the first one you can see how tight it was before and the second one shows how she can lift it and the tip is even curled upwards, she could never do that before!

What a big, brave girl! Colin has the same thing. One of these days he'll have to have his clipped too. He can talk fine but I think he gets frustrted that he can't stick his toung out very far.
Awesome Hailey girl! Now you can stick your tongue at Ashley when ever you want!
wow, looks like she likes it! congrats to her!
