Then our mouth was filled with laughter - Psalm 126:2

There are all sorts of new sounds going on in the Clay household this week (and no it's not Preston singing or attempting to play the piano;). With Kaz coming up on 5 months, he has just started finding humor in the world. Giving him something as simple as a grin, could get a cute giggle back to let you know he's paying attention. Preston has been smiling non-stop the past few days...this new talent is like a new toy to him and he can't get enough of entertaining such a cute face:)
Kaz has also started to grab for toys and things in front of him. Since he was pre-mature...and the fact that I am the type A (paranoid/worried) mother, I am always monitoring all of his developmental progress. Thus far, he seems to be hitting most of his milestones right on with his birthdate...only lagging behind a few weeks in an area or two. Every single thing that he accomplishes, no matter how big or small I am so grateful...especially when thinking back to just 3 months ago when he had trouble remembering to take a breath.
We visited the plastic surgeon to discuss Kaz's head this week and on a positive note, get to hold off on a helmet for the time being. We will go back in 3 months for a follow-up to see if the problem has resolved itself and will be praying for that in the meantime.

Me and my boy have been working on a little Halloween surprise for our friends and family. It's just a little craft, no big deal really...but I'd forgotten how much fun it was to be a kid:) It's all coming back...the excitement of the holidays and fun stuff that comes along with it. I look so forward to these years ahead!
