Ouch

Lucy is almost 3 years old.....and I think she's getting more teeth.
I noticed months ago that not all her molars were in but didn't think any more of it. Last night while watching one of her favorite shows she started to whine. I couldn't figure it out. And then she started bawling saying that something hurt. I couldn't understand what she was saying through all the tears. Finally I asked, "your cheek hurts?" "Ooooookay!" she responded, and added, "my face hurts!" Poor thing.
We got her calmed down and in bed and she woke up two more times bawling, just as an infant would when cutting new teeth. Hooray for tylenol! She (thankfully) downed her dosage mixed with milk and we all slept soundly the rest of the night.

Cutting teeth hurts. I'm glad I don't remember it.

teething is the worst. Otis spent Thanksgiving week getting in 5 new teeth...going from 2 to 7. ugh! It's so sad to see little kiddies in pain.

"My face hurts," so cute, though I know pain is not funny. I never noticed when Caleb was cutting teeth and neither did he. Isaac on the other hand has made us all unhappy for weeks with each new tooth and he currently only as 6!
