We swear, he's smiling!

Yes, Preston is smiling socially now (it's not just gas)! The best time to catch him smiling big time is in the morning or just after he wakes up from a nap. We've tried to capture it for days now and we're getting closer, but pretty much every time we break out the camera, the smiling stops! Maybe Preston just likes to make us look and sound ridiculous trying to get him to smile for the camera...you be the judge.

Jeffrey & Preston

Many of you have asked how Jeffrey is dealing with the new arrival...well, the jury is still out. Jeffrey was curious at first, then resentful and jealous, then somewhat affectionate followed by periods of depression, and now he has resigned himself to the fact that yes, Preston is sticking around and his own standing in the family has fallen. But things are looking up. Some nights Jeffrey can even be found snuggling up on the sofa with Nancy and Preston.

Preston's Summer Vacation!

I know, I know...it has been much too long since we've updated Preston's web site and blog. But we have a good excuse-- we've been carting Preston around North Carolina on his summer vacation! Here's a video of Preston swimming in the pool at the Outer Banks (seriously, he likes it):



What else has Preston been up to? He's finally starting to smile (for reasons other than gas), he loves his new swing (see pics below), and he's 6 weeks old today!
