I definitely...

needed to update this blog last week- BUT-I've got a sick little baby and a teething little baby; plus I'm sick too! Thank goodness I'm not teething. So big news though, Hailey's got a tooth...in fact she's probably hours away from cutting her second one. It's there, I can feel it and it looks like it's through, but not quite yet. Let me just tell you though, a 4 month old baby is NOT supposed to get teeth! She's 5 months old today though, so that's a little better, but that first tooth, man oh man was it tough. Also on the good news side of things - she's rolling over! I know it's a bit late, but still pretty exciting! It's so cute too. She's diving all over the place and trying to grab toys too...she so wants to be mobile, but just isn't sure what to do about it. But seriously, if I'm holding her it's got to be one tight grasp because she will do all she can to squirm her way out - she's even mastered the arched back maneuver. I thought I had months before that started...I guess not. Anyway, I have pictures...on my camera though. And I'm too busy right now to transfer them. But I do have this one! It's the magic tooth:


Oh and this one...
my sweet little sleeping baby - who SUCKS HER THUMB!! Ahhh! You won't believe how many people have opinions on that. Everyone tells me that I just have to keep taking it out of her mouth...well I say "my sleep is so much more important than going in her room at night and taking it out" - soooo not worth it. Really if it keeps her asleep at night, which is does, then I don't care. Ask me in two years and I might have a different opinion, but for now I just don't care!

Have you ever tried Hylands teething tablets? A friend highly recommended them. They're homeopathic and supposed to be great. Tate's definitely getting them when the next tooth comes.

Don't worry, once you have kids EVERYONE has advise (solicited or not), so just do what you gotta do and let her suck away! She is so sweet, I can't believe she has a tooth already!!!! Ad I can't wait until her and Heidi can play for real!

OK that is really early to have a tooth! What a cutie sleeping! Don't worry about the thumb sucking thing. I sucked my thumb until I was 6yrs, are my teeth bucked? No! Plus don't worry about it until later on. She's just a dang cutie pie!

Sweet posts Meagan! I was so happy to have lots to catch up on. What a cutie. A tooth already. Are you still nursing? Ouch. Jokes. I can't even remember when my girls cut their first teeth. I used to, but something happened with this 4th, and my memory is completely gone!!! Great shots. Hope you guys have a great Christmas!!!
