Teething=Trauma

Well I thought we were headed down the right track after G finally getting her first tooth on Sunday! I was wrong. Oh so wrong. The poor girl is in so much pain she just wails all the time. Talk about a good method of birth control. I cannot believe we have a whole mouthful still to go. No wonder no one remembers anything before the age of like 3 becuase most of it is spent in pain! We had a very rough night last night, no sleep for all 3 of us. The weekend cannot come soon enough. This morning Gabe had to leave early for work, leaving me and Gracen to fend for ourselves. She did not stop crying for over an hour straight. Poor little lady. It is very difficult to get ready for work when you're exhausted and trying to console a teething baby! Lord help us get through the rest of em!

Such a tough lil turkey!

It's been a couple weeks, and not a whole lot has happened! We are still (im)patiently waiting for Gracen's teeth to come in, poor girl. She is totally dunzo with the baby food, doesn't want to have anything to do with it, but she can't eat any real food until she gets some stinkin teeth! She practically drools over Gabe and I's food, and it really is sad not to give her any. So come on teeth, we are ready!

Went to the doctor again yesterday, got one more shot (boo). And she has only gained 5oz. (she's up to 15lbs 12 oz!) in the last month so they are still concerned with her weight. Sometime in the next month we are going to a pediatrician to get a second opinion, and go from there.

We're starting to look at new day care options, and I'm pretty sure it's going to be quite a transition for her. Totally different then anything she is used to! It'll be fun for her to meet other kids her age, and to meet some other Mommies too. Hopefully she'll like it!

We don't have anything too fancy planned for her first Valentine's Day, probably just out to dinner, but that's pretty exciting for us!
