All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth

We would like to announce the arrival of Lily's two front bottom teeth! The first sign of them was just over a week ago. There was much work put into getting them. It sounds hard to believe but she suffered for 6 weeks to get them, and the rest of us with her. The nights have been, well how will I put it...adventurous :] A typical night might be - put her to bed at 7pm up at 10:30 for last feed, then the fun would kick off with her waking and screaming at 12:30am then 1:30am, then maybe 2:45am, 3:00am, 3:30am then maybe 5:00am , 6:00am and finally awake at 7:00am to start the day. Have I put anyone off having a baby yet?! Not all the nights were that bad but let's just say we're hopeful that things will change soon. Thank God she is my second baby. If James had been this bad I may have never had a second one. Luckily she has such a sweet nature which gives me something to look forward to each morning. I forgive her for all the grief she gives me at night the instant I see her sweet smiling face looking up at me.


Having two teeth up hasn't stopped her chewing everything in sight. I think there may be more coming soon.


She had been sucking her thumb for a few weeks but having two razor sharp teeth in her mouth seems to have put her off.

Stay tuned as in a few days I am going to do another post which will focus on James from 2008.
