Sweet Smell of Success


Dear Laney,

You have gotten your two lower teeth in, which is a major accomplishment - good work! I would put a picture of them here, except you won't let us get anywhere near your mouth. You punch and kick if we try to sneak a feel of your gum line and your tongue is working over those new teeth CONSTANTLY. I can't imagine what it's like to wake up one morning and have new teeth in your mouth. Freaky.

For the most part, you've been a good sport about the teething thing. It helps that you like these maple-flavored teething biscuits that are harder than bricks. You'll work on one of those things forever, turning it into a mess of brown goo that smells like IHOP. It gets everywhere and is a huge mess, but at this point, your dad and I don't care. Whatever gets us through the next 26 teeth with a minimum of crying is A-OK with us.

Love,
Mom
