Cayman's got a new headband. I first saw it on this mom's baby (Elisabeth) and she told me it was from this store. The stores are only out west, nowhere near me, but I have a very good friend that lives close to one. She told me she would pick up a headband for Cayman before she came to Ohio for a visit. When she came, she brought Cayman two headbands!!Before hand, I called the store to find out what size Cayman would need. The sales lady asked me for my daughter's head measurement. When I told her it's 48 cm she said, "Oh, that's the same size as my daughter's."
Curious, I asked, "How old is your daughter?"
"21 months."
I smiled to myself at the funny thought that my 5 month old has the same head size as a 21 month old. Cayman's head certainly does not seem that large to me anymore.
My blogging friend, Sherri, who is a beautiful mom to a boy born with Hydrocephalus, wrote this post. It is written so perfectly and I identify with every word. You seriously have to hop over and read this short post because I could not have written it better myself.

I read that post... I could never honestly put into words what I feel for children like ours. It's still so hard to do. To look at another child and their head be "normal" is so different for me. I can pick another Hydro baby out of a crowded room. Not that im looking. I have no idea how I am going to react to this baby having a "normal" head. It's scary for me to think. Am I constantly going to be staring at his/her soft spot? Am I going to worry everytime this baby throws up??!! Oh the worries! I love those headbands! Im actually going to go check out that store!
Those are adorable! And that photo of Cayman with her little fingers in her mouth is soooo cute :)
I love the headbands!! see you all very soon! YAY! :):)

I am such a slacker!!! I never sent you the measurements of Elisabeth's. Oh well....it looks like you got the perfect fit anyways. She is adorable in that headband!
Hey Kristen (And Mike)... it's been a very long time since I've seen either one of you, but I just wanted to let you know that I heard about your daughter the other day and have been praying for you guys. She's beautiful, I love the pics you have of her. God Bless You Guys, and I hope the benefit goes well!
