All I want for christmas are my TWO FRONT TEETH

Oh my goodness gracious!! Can I just say that this week and a bit has been a nightmare? Cadence has been teething on and off since she was 3 months old and I thought those few months were hell...Ya freaking right, this week has been worse than those 4 months.....1 week...and I feel like the worst mother ever and deserve a prize or something. I was getting frustrated with her because she's not eating or drinking, screaming most of the night and not sleeping, and wiping her slobbery/boogery face all over me because her face hurts. I just thought she was coming down with something (especially after spiking a fever of 103 degrees F, and grabbing at her ears). We went to the doctors to see if she had an ear infection but was told nothing was wrong. I asked if teething could be the culprit and they confirmed it. I just had to keep up on the Tylenol and let her chew everything in site. Sure enough 1 week later her right bottom incisor poked through on December 10th. At least now I know the sequence of events that occur just before a tooth decides to make it's grand entrance. First they say your baby drools and you'll feel like she has a drool tap built inside her mouth. That's an understatement, it was a river of slobber/boogers. Second they say you have a fussy baby. That is true but do they mention the nights of screaming in agonizing pain for 2 nights straight (even with pain relievers). Frick! I thought I was prepared for this but I'm not and this is only just the beginning of her teeth coming through. This first year is going to get worse.

On a brighter, much happier note, Cadence started crawling today. We are soooo stoked! It is so cute to watch her move around, if I knew how to post a video I totally would. But here are pictures, just imagine her moving when you look at them.... :) And she made the crawl before christmas deadline I set for her. Anywho next post should be her 7 month stats when she turns 7 months in a week. Happy Holidays!
