Mom, My Teeth Hurt...

I previously posted that Carter's bottom 2 teeth are comin' through...well, it's made him a tad, um, cranky at times. We're still pretty blessed, as he has quite a happy disposition, but this teething thing is chiseling away at that happiness (for all of us...).

Main source of comfort for Carter is jamming his fingers in his mouth. Exhibit A (and note the huge jean shorts...size 9-month one-sie looks snug and the size 6-month shorts look like gangsta baggy pants!):And if the fingers aren't available, the toes will do. As shown here in Exhibit B (check out the adorable baseball socks!):
In other news, been working on some back strength and doing a little sittin' time in the bumbo seat. Fun all around, see:
But sometimes, when the teeth keep pokin' through, Carter gets a little pouty (check out the size of those cheeks!):
Maybe chewing on the fingers will help?

Or this stuffed giraffe?

Or perhaps the feet...ah yes, that's the ticket:
Until all of Carter's teeth come in, we'll just grin and bear it. Hope everyone had a nice weekend!
