teething fun!

so i have never been the best at knowing when my kids have been getting teeth. with ethan, he'd get a pretty bad diaper rash (but he got those all the time, so it was hard to tell for sure) and nothing else. then suddenly teeth were there. and half the time someone else noticed them and said something to me.

with miles, his first 4 teeth came in at once, though the top came in before the bottom. he did get a TERRIBLE rash too, like his big brother and was a little cranky, but other than that, nothing else really. well, he has been a drool monster over the past few weeks and has been sleeping terribly (up usually 2 times between midnight and 5) and i thought it was becase he was about to walk. turns out he was getting his next tooth...how would i have known to look in the back though?? he isn't getting another front tooth, like what is normal. his crazy teeth are all out of order and he is getting one of his upper molars in. who would have guessed? but yes, it does explain the recent moodiness and sleeplessness. i only saw his tooth when he was screaming his head off during a diaper change last night. fun times! :) i will say that now that it has popped through, his sleep has returned to normal and i am very happy!

i should keep track on this handy little chart, but i printed one off for ethan a million years ago and i think it is still blank in my desk at work. good intentions! i'll keep track here. so far he has the #1 teeth on both the top and the bottom and now is getting the #4 tooth on his upper left side.
