All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth

Blogging has been light, because in addition for attempting to pack up the family for a week on the road, Cody has been teething something fierce. They're trying so hard to come through, but so far, he's still my little gummy bear. But in lots of pain. He's been cranky, grumpy, whiny, sleepless, and tearful -- all very unusual states for Cody.

Zweibeck seemed to help at first, and he just demolishes them. Oh, what tragic little peepers.


Then we tried the cold washcloth, which was also kind of ok.

But then I had a genius idea: cold celery sticks. Too hard to bite off and choke on, but malleable enough to gum. At first he doesn't know what to think...

But then decided it was pretty ok.


Sadly, that faccia hasn't been around too much. We are hoping the weeping and gnashing of gums will soon be at an end.

OK, that picture of Cody in the yellow duck hat with the red collar thing below his neck is one of THE cutest pictures of a baby I have EVER seen. Jeff
