Tooth #2

Today while taking the new video of Joey, I took a couple new pictures too and I even was able to get a new one of his teeth!

Mr. Attitude

Last week I started giving Joey stage 3 fruits and veggies and the other day I gave him stage 3 meat for the first time. The first couple bites he gagged on a little, then after that he actually did really good. So yesterday, Joey's OT wanted to watch him eat and was very happy with how he was chewing and swallowing the stage 3 meat. I had bought some biter biscuits and meltable puffs at the store last week so she wanted to see how he reacted to them. To put it mildly, he doesn't like them at all. We put a puff on his tongue and he got sooooo mad and started screaming! So, after it melted and he swallowed it, he went back to being happy so we tried giving him a biter biscuit. He liked playing with it, but the second it touched his tongue, no way! Started screaming again. Joey's OT warned me it might take multiple tries to get him to eat more solid food, but I didn't think he would react the way he did. My little Mr. Attitude.



This morning, he once again wasn't in the best of moods. He would play for a little while, get mad and would start crying. I'm guessing either his teeth are bothering him or he has a tummy ache. So, I just gave him prunes in case he's constipated again and Tylenol in case it's his teeth. Either way, it'll help him out in the long run. Right now he's crying to sleep in his crib and I'm patiently waiting for him to fall asleep so I can take a nap too! It's only 10 am, and I already need a nap!

I hope after his nap, Mr. Attitude has gone for a vacation and my Mr. Happy Joey is back!

Finally!

You would not believe how long to it took me to get a picture of Joey's tooth! I never thought I could catch his mouth open, but I did!! See how crooked it is?!?! Also, if you click on the picture to enlarge it, you can see the white from the tooth next to it getting ready to come in (which also seems to be crooked) and the lumps from his I-teeth which I'm starting to believe will never come in!

A TOOTH!

Yes folks, it officially happened! I forgot to post the other day, while in Ohio, one of Joey's front bottom teeth finally showed it's pearly white self and boy is it ever sharp! I've still been waiting on his four I-teeth to pop through, they're still HUGE lumps, but this little guy in the middle popped up out of nowhere! And now, I feel the one next to it. I hope it shows it's way soon! I'll be sure to post a picture of it as soon as I can get Joey to keep his mouth open long enough to snap a picture!
