One Word-TEETHING!

Ugh. Why is teething so hard? Emma got her first molar in no problem but now she has a few teeth coming in at that same time and it is horendous! Last night she went to sleep around 7:30 and and started whining around 10pm I believe. Then from 10:30ish-12:15 George tried to comfort her and put her back to sleep but she wasn't having it. So Mommy tried to work her magic from 12:15-3am and finally got her back to bed. Yes folks, I said 3am! We watched 2 episodes of Baby Babble and that did the trick. She was so miserable her poor nose was so snotty and you could just tell she was in pain. She would kick and scream and wouldn't even take the Motrin. Feeling helpless with your child is one of the worst things in the world I think. Usually I can make her all better but not last night. But we made it and lets hope today is better. So far her nose is still snotty but it isn't running as bad as it was.

Hopefully I'll get some new pics up this week. We've been SO busy the past week with Starlena & Kelsey in town and then my friend Tammy spent the weekend with us too. So I'm a little behind but I promise to post pics soon! :)

Brandy,
Whew! So sorry to hear that Emma is having a rough time.... Alex and Addie are just now getting their first tooth and it has not been fun! Thanks for sharing the tips about the teething tablets. We are going to give those a try. I hope that Emma gets to feeling better soon so that we can get together :) Get some rest!
By the way, I totally agree about how hard it is to see a child in such pain and feel so helpless. I have been there....
