No. 5 is Alive!

Sean's getting his fifth tooth! It has broken through the skin next to his top two teeth. He's been sensitive about his teeth for the past few weeks and hasn't let me brush his teeth in the tub during his bath. I've been trying to get a photo...

Brush Only the Ones You Want to Keep

We introduced Sean to his toothbrush tonight, and he really liked it. It kept him occupied during his entire bath and he didn't even touch any of his bath toys.

Ew. The Flu.

Last night/early this morning Sean woke up with a fever. Although he is teething, Matthew is also sick, so I took him to see his pediatrician. They tested Sean and found that he has the flu. So now it's naps and nursing and fever medicine. Hopefully Sean will be better by next week. Some good news: when Sean was crying, I noticed that he's getting both of his bottom incisors as well as once of the top ones. Good-bye naked gums!

As for height and weight, Sean is 27 1/2 inches tall and weighs 20 pounds 4.4 ounces. (And I thought for sure he was getting heavier...)

Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing

Today Sean had real bananas in this little food holder. Since he's getting his teeth in, I figured he should start using them. He really enjoyed it and even wanted seconds!

The Happy Halfy

If you zoom in on this picture, you can see his little tooth.

A Week of Silent Nights

For about a week after Christmas, Sean was sleeping through the night. One morning I looked at the clock and it was 6:30am. We were so happy! For the past few nights though, he has started waking up again. We were trying to figure out what we were doing wrong. Well, today we found out why... Sean's getting his first tooth!
