Everything, everything, everything, everything EVERYTHING goes in her mouth!! Nothing is safe anymore! Look out magazine, look out toys, look out hair, look out clothes, hands, and especially hot bowls, cups and plates...you are all going to get slimed my my daughter! Although it's been hard to keep her little monkey paws from grabbing onto just about everything and cramming it into her little toothless abyss, it's so cute and so much fun watching her experiment and discover things all by herself. It's only the dangerous things that I need to watch for. And why does she love the sharp, hot, dirty stuff so much? Go figure. Human nature I guess. We have to try it out before we learn. To add to this mouthwatering business lately, she is teething so much right now. I can see the little white tips of her bottom two teeth trying to punch their way through her little gums and I do not envy her. I remember what it felt like for my wisdom teeth coming in and I know she's in a lot of pain. The Oragel stuff doesn't keep her suffering at bay long enough and since you're not supposed to use that so much I have had to resort to infant Tylenol drops. I don't give it to her a lot, only when she's really needing it, and boy does it help. It's like magic. I am so excited for her teeth to pop through. She's going to be so cute - and 10x more dangerous, but I don't mind. Let the baby-proofing begin! Meanwhile, for all you who are following my hopeful plight into independent and harmonious naps, I have good news to report. My little coconut is napping like an angel. Sometimes she fusses for a little while, but there's no more screaming or murderous cries coming from her room. She's off to dreamland very quickly now and I'm so proud. She's so much happier now and I've even caught her waking up and playing in her bed for 5-10 minutes before asking to get out. She's content and I am too...just hoping these teeth come soon!
