so, we have been waiting and waiting for Connor to start teething. I mean, we've had the drool, we've had the chewing...for months now...but last week we started to notice that one of his top teeth might be getting ready to come in. It was swollen and you could feel the tooth underneath!@ how exciting...so we continued to wait. WEll, tuesday morning, we went on base for a breifing that wives could attend with the guys...and TJ was letting Connor chew on his finger, and he announced "ouch! we have a tooth!" so i pull back the top lip and say "umm..NO we dont!!" and he said "no dear, on the bottom..." and sure enough there was a bottom tooth showing! i didnt even know it was coming!! then wednesday morning, the top tooth made its appearance...fun fun...two teeth in two days..this kid does it rough and tough... So i was glad that was all over...but was still dealing with serious crankiness and the pooing (OH the pooing!) which of course leads to diaper rash...yay! anyway.. so last night TJ got home late and was fiddling around with Connor and said "wow, that top tooth is really coming in fast, and then there's the bottom one....i mean bottom TWO?!?!?!" The second bottom tooth was in too! that makes 3 teeth in 3 days! YIKES! i mean seriously people?!?! couldnt we just get one under our belt before we started doing multiples?!?! So anyway, it's been an interesting week of drool, poo, lots of diapers and diaper rash creams, tears, laughs, and amazement at how brave this little boy is..because through it all, he is still managing to smile and laugh and be basically the happy little boy he always is when most adults would be crying in the corner (that definitely includes ME!)
soo...it's day 4....we'll see what POPS UP today!! Wish us luck!
