Teething, for real!


Bo has been waking up in the middle of the night from a dead sleep to full-scream crying. He didn't even do this with kidney stones. But it's nice to know it's just his teeth (the 2 bottom ones). And he goes right back to sleep after I pick him up. What a good boy!
He's been saying "Good," and "Dada" for a couple months. He is finally saying Mamma, with great clarity. And clapping! Jumping in his Johnny Jumper! Waving his hands up and down. He even tipped the scale just past 18lbs. So much has happened in the last few days.
Oh, look at those angry red eyebrows! Poor little mouth. Dr. Puder was trying to convince me that Bo would really get his teeth, and that he'd never heard of the genetic condition that resulted in a toothless baby. I guess he was right again. I was doubtful, I admit.
