Soren started getting his first tooth today at the ripe old age of 10 1/2 months and all I can say is, the phrase "cutting teeth" is aptly given to the process. I've rarely seen my little guy so distraught, crabby and unwilling to sleep despite exhaustion. I finally figured it out around lunch time today and gave the little cutter some Tylenol and something cold to chew on. The difference was noticeable in minutes! My happy guy returned.
I called Daddy to share the exciting news about the long awaited tooth. He'd already heard about the crankiness and not sleeping. His response hit it right on the nose: "And 'we' get to do this for every tooth." (Okay, so maybe not that profound, but I hadn't viewed it in that light yet.) Let's just take this one painful little tooth at a time.
