Weekend

Can't say we did much at all this weekend. With the combination of gloomy, stormy weather, and a WHINEY, FUSSY boy, we pretty much stayed homebound. I think T is about to cut a tooth, at least I hope this is it. Good grief, he is a good whiner. I think he gets it from me. He has the 'whine' down to a T, and for him being as young as he is, it's pretty impressive. He also wants anything and everything that we are eating and drinking, from a bottle of soda, to a blizzard from DQ (who can blame him), to salad. He reaches his hand out, staring at the said food item, and does the whine.

He is also only content if he is able to roll back and forth, sit, then lean down to a roll, or bounce and jump up and down in his exersaucer. Boy is ready to MOVE. We, however, will be happy if he remains somewhat immobile for a little while longer. Don't know how much longer we have, though.

Any teething tips? I've found a cold, wet washcloth works well, and also a sippy cup with very cold water in it. Yes, we have the traditional teething rings, but they get warm so quickly i don't really think they work that well.

Didn't take too many pictures this weekend, but here's at least one I took with my phone.

There is this mesh teether thing you can stick a banana in and then freeze it and he can munch and nibble on it. Both my boys loved it...and with the mesh he can't get too much of the banana mush.

Try Hyland's Teething Tablets. They have done wonders for Jimmy. We buy our at Walgreens. And I think these may be the organic ones Jessica mentioned.
