it's coming........

the 1st tooth that is. the last 2 days and nights have been really rough for court and i've been trying to figure out why. he hasn't slept good during his naps, he's a little more cranky, and the last 2 nights he's woken up screaming between 2-3 AM. i've been feeling his gums and he pushes my hand away which is unusual for him. so, i just thought it'd be a matter of time. we've been taking tylenol and using hyland's teething tablets (which work instantly i might add). just now, i went to get him ready for a nap and he started screaming as soon as he started chewing on a toy. so, i felt the gums again and i felt a tiny little nub on the bottom. i still can't see it yet because i haven't figured out how to open his mouth and move his tongue so i can see it. but, i know it's there. so, i better stock up on those tablets. if you don't have them and will have a teething baby soon - get some now!!! :) i'll post a pic if i can EVER get one :)

Look at your first-born showing my third-child how to get some teeth! Those teething tablets are wonderful! Can't wait to see your cutie with a tooth or two.

Catch this -- we are already teething over here at the Sparkmans. Parker started about a month ago (the end of his 2nd month). Drooling initially, everywhere I might add. Then the pain set in. It has been a real struggle here lately. He's so uncomfortable. I can't wait until it actually comes in though.
Court will look precious when it gets here. I love when they have those two bottom ones when they grin. :o)

We've pulled out our Hyland's stash as well. Except Gracie was working on numero #4 tooth on top :) Those things are awesome!
