First Molars

Oh teeth. Teeth teeth teeth teeth. Teeth will be the death of me. Then they fall out in years to come. Why after so much turmoil? I hate teething! Needless to say, Mati Claire has her 1 year molars. And the holes for a few canines. I had to call my sister (the dental hygienist) AGAIN to find out AGAIN how many teeth there are...and how much longer WE had to suffer through this. Poor MC has been so miserable for the past 2 weeks. She seems to be doing better this week! She's in a better mood the past few days and just LOVES playing outside with the gorgeous weather. She woke up this morning repeatedly saying "ah-side" "ah-side".

I've been reminding myself that I should not fret over these kind of things (teething and eating issues) when there are people around me with much bigger problems. Every morning Matt comes home and tells me his latest ER story. This past week shocked me when he told me Dr. Estess was a patient. (I don't think that's violating HIPAA since all of Clinton knows.) It puts things in perspective and we're praying for him and his family. He's on the good road to recovery at the present time. Then Bodie, my 4 year old date on several occasions, had a ruptured eardrum. His mother called me in tears and said she was on the way to the ER and hoped Matt could help him. He's fine now thank goodness. As a mother, I just felt lucky and truly blessed. Here I am complaining of MC's allergies and a runny nose. I could have been rushing to the ER in the middle of the night with a screaming baby.

Sorry no new pictures to post. MC keeps me so busy that I haven't had time to even pick up my camera! Looking forward to an interesting weekend! :)

Hope she feels better soon. Teething is the pits for everyone involved.
