New milestones!

First off, earlier this week, Elise got a tooth! Also, the one next to it should be through tomorrow.




Good thing she has a super cute amber teething necklace!




And then tonight she had fun doing this! At this rate, she'll be sitting by 5 months . . .


Why do they have to grow up so fast?

The final teething session...

Andrew has been working on his 2 year molars for over a week now. I *think* the bottom ones are mostly all the way in. He won't let me look at the top of his mouth, and it's so far back that it's hard to see. Teething = lots of drool = gross diapers (and we do cloth, so that's a lot of extra cleaning for Mommy). I will be so glad when this is done!

Tooth #7 and tooth #8!

They are starting to come through. These will be the bottom two on either side of the center two. This will make 8 teeth at 6 months! I hope his molars decide to wait for awhile.......

In other news, we've recently started solids. He's not too crazy about cereal, but he will eat it. He enjoyed sweet potatoes and carrots, but did not like peas.

More teeth!

For the past week or so, Andrew has been teething (again...his bottom two teeth cut through when he turned 3 months). He's been very fussy, drooling like crazy, gnawing on everything, spitting up more, and crying out in his sleep (this is so sad!). I've been holding him a lot because he seems very clingy. If I can distract him with my love, why not? :)

Anyway, I have been watching the teeth try to come through. They almost look like canker sores on his gums (ouch) and you can see the white tooth beneath the surface. Anyway, last night I go to check-out what I thought was just the two top teeth, and I see that there's a third one coming through too!

I sent Rob to the store to get some Hyland's Teething Tablets. I've heard good things about them and it's worth a try. The Tylenol just doesn't seem to be "cutting" it (no pun intended).

I can't believe that by the end of this week (probably) the little guy is going to have 5 teeth. He's only 5 months old!
