My mom stuck a raw baby carrot in lo's mouth yesterday, right after I told her (again) that she was not getting sweet potatoes. The carrot was "just for her to bite down on!" Ugh. She also bought me a blue and brown comforter I had already told her I didn't want "because it was $17.99 on sale from $70!" Okay, mom.
I was up at 6 but got to go back to bed for a couple hours. Really looking forward to the long weekend with DH! Today we're going to "opt outside" and go on a long walk somewhere instead of shopping. (I'll just do that online hahaha)
This week, my cat napper (never naps for more than 20-40 mins) 5-6 times a day, had 2-3 long naps per day. Like over 2 hours. I could cry. I know it can change in an instant, and it will...but this week I baske in the glory that is long naps! (It actually is helping him sleep better overnight too).
I read this while feeding DD and getting her ready for her nap and for some reason got this idea in my head all the cat nappers would be cured.
Guess who's smiling in my arms 10 minutes after I left the room. Sigh.
Granted I can now feel that tooth #4 just popped. No sign of it last night, other than that I noticed #3 earlier yesterday. Kid's not even 6 months old for another week.
H has been slowly putting permanent implants in his mouth from a hockey accident almost 7 years ago ($ means we couldn't do this all in one shot, just been doing crowns and temporaries in between), he was at the dentist looking at the last one today and texted me that he booked the appointment to have this one done now, I told him I found another tooth on DD, and that she's going to be done teething faster than him haha.
And for funny sakes, here he is with DS a year and a half ago when he was in between surgeries and had a tooth removed to heal the gums and DS was still getting his front teeth in, I saw the humour in it then as well.

tiffbot we're still waiting in tooth #1 to cut through. I thought for sure she'd have it already. She's had 4 visible buds under her gums for over a month (close to 2.5 months already). DS got his first 2 teeth right at 5.5 months. I'm beginning to think LO is playing a trick and will actually get teeth late...

I was up at 5:30, and out the door at 6:15 to shop. Only went to a couple places, and took T with me. Met up with my mom and had fun getting stuff for the big kids! Now hanging out at the IL's, might do some online bargain hunting...

Meh on the carrot. As long as he can't bite off a piece and choke on it, it actually does make a pretty good teether.

That's not the point. I told her "no food" and my kid has a ton of teethers. She kept saying "oh, she wants our food!" and wouldn't stop. It's disrespectful.

My dentist dis say the other day that a cold carrot is one of the best teethers bec it numbs the area up well. We do that for M, but he doesn't actually eat any of it, he just sucks on it.
tiffbot, how has your DH found healing from that? I need to get my four top front teeth done and am scared spitless. Also not looking forward to the cost so I currently wear my retainer like a twelve year old.
Went to the mall just to go to build-a-bear with DD, nieces, nephew, and DHs cousin. I really dont know why i thought that was a good idea, but the good news is its over now.
Shopped from 6-1. So tired. I got a beautiful new tree for $80 that's normally $200. And lots of things for O mostly clothes because nothing fits him anymore!
Also is there a 5 month growth spurt? This kid is insatiable!

I love this! DH twisted his front tooth really badly in a skiing accident five years ago and still hasn't gotten it fixed. He's so self conscious about it but because it's just twisted and not loose it always gets back burnered for other things. We spent the money we had to get an implant put in on fertility treatment instead, and then a new van for me when I had my car accident last year, and then on a last second kitchen reno when the double oven fell out of the wall. Next big thing we spend on needs to be for his tooth. He so deserves it.
My random: P didn't sleep any more than usual last night but this morning he slept until 8:45, instead of 7:00. And just now I laid him down in his PnP so I could use the bathroom and when I came back five minutes later he was sound asleep. DH is out doing whatever and DS1 is with his dad so I'm drinking a hot chocolate & Bailey's, watching ANTM reruns, and loving the alone time.

He always has healed really quickly from it! Looking back and knowing how long this has been going on for, it would have been so nice if it could have just all been replaced permanently because of constant trips back getting fixes or repairs done. I can understand your fear though, the first time he told me what needed to happen definitely gave me the shudders!

Almost completely done with holiday shopping!
I pulled a world class STM trick. Instead of bringing the kids in their "Santa outfits" I brought the outfits with us. Which turned into a phenomenal move when BH had a massive blowout in the car on the way there.

Meijer was having a buy 1 get 2 free sale on carters apparel. Then I went to BRU to get some pacifiers, and they were having an additional 25% off clearance clothes. So, I am done buying for J now. Bought half of H's gifts, will buy the rest online. Will hopefully be finishing up purchasing this weekend.
How is it I went out for things other than baby stuff but I came back with three new toys for LO? Damn you, kohl's 50% toys & Target's Little Einsteins display!
We put our tree up and lights outside. I have no reason to wrap lo's stuff but I want to make it pretty under the tree!
