Birth Announcements & Stuff



So Chloe & I worked hard at getting all 75 birth announcements out yesterday...only 8 weeks later!! It was quite a fun day (insert sarcasm here) as I was addressing envelopes in between screaming fits. This screaming & crying was like no other I had heard before. After a very long day I settled down to the computer with her sleeping by my side and googled away. I settled upon the fact that Chloe must be going through a developmental growth spurt since all the signs were there. Eating every hour - check, irritable & fussy - check, disruptive sleep - check. Then at 5am this morning, Chloe did her first roll over!


Well - that's not all folks. As today was turning out to be much like yesterday, I explored my second thought...maybe she's teething? No...don't be silly, I told myself. So when Chris came home from work I asked him to take a look and tell me I wasn't crazy...and sure enough he confirmed it with his trusty flashlight. On the eve of her 8 week birthday, our dear Chloe is sprouting her bottom teeth!!! Excuse me while I go grab the first tube of baby Orajel I lay my eyes on....

wow!! Try Hylands teething tablets if you can, they worked much much better for us than the orajel- the orajel would sometimes numb the rest of their mouth/throat too and make the baby really mad!!

Beautiful announcements! Krew already has 10 teeth... so bless your heart. I'm glad he's not the only baby that got teeth early :)

Ya - I still can't believe she's teething but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one going through this with her so early! Krew is a cutie!!
