More teeth...FINALLY!




Sorry I don't have many new pictures. The camera is always on the opposite level I am and I just can't work up the energy to climb those stairs if it's not needed! Mackenzie, as many of you know, has been extremely S-L-O-W in getting her teeth. Just before her 1st birthday she got her lower two front teeth. That is all she's had for the past, oh....5 months! Just last weekend she cut a molar on the upper left and this weekend a molar on the upper right. This completely defies the order teeth are supposed to erupt but at least I know she has more teeth in there. I was trying not to be worried but it was really weird. Needless to say she's been very moody, bossy and a firecracker. Yes, I'm blaming it on the teeth and denying that it's likely just her personality! Some of her latest words: no, no, uh-oh, two shoes, mommy, daddy, more and we're working on please. We got her a booster chair today because she loves sitting at the table now. I guess now is a good time to transition out of the high chair so it's available for Dylon when he comes over and for Adelynn soon. I was thinking tonight with all of us at the table how crazy that in a few weeks there will be another one at the table. The screaming & crying sometimes gives me a headache after a long day but most of the time, it's really becoming a sound I enjoy. Our quiet lives as we knew them are over but nothing fills the heart & soul with more warmth and love than the sounds of children...laughing or crying!
