Tooth six, but not the right one
Daniel got a new tooth last night, but not the one we’ve been anxiously awaiting. His lower left next to the center ones came in, but the upper right has been giving him a terrible time for weeks now.
Baby needs a new pair of shoesDaniel is getting closer to walking so was needing his first pair of real shoes. Today Mama and Mimi took Daniel to the shoe store. Mimi rode in the back seat with Daniel which may have been the reason for this blissful look.
“Are we there yet?”
“This is the tooth that hurts.”
“Wow, my first big boy shoes.”
These are some of Daniel’s antics in the car on the way there.
“Mama”Daniel likes to sit outside his play pen close to my rocking chair. He says “Hi” and then says “Mama” to ask to be picked up. “Mama Mmba”Yesterday was the first time I really knew Daniel was calling me “Mama”. He usually does it when he wants to be picked up or rescued. Also, yesterday, we learned he has another word: “mmba”. In the context we knew it meant bottle. He was really tired and was ready to go to bed, so started asking for an “mmba”. Gene asked if he wanted a bottle, and Daniel got a little frustrated that we didn’t just know that was what “mmba” was. So today Daniel used his first two word combination. I thought I would start getting him used to a sippy cup by putting some of his milk in one. Oh my, he got really upset. He cried and pushed it away and then several times said “Mama, mmba!” I transferred his milk to a bottle and that made him happy. Looks like milk will have to stay in an “mmba” for now.
