Biting

Apparently Audrey has begun a new stage in life - one that unfortunately includes biting.

I was sitting at the table and Audrey came up and bit my knee. So I told her in a very serious and stern voice (while pointing my finger) "Audrey NO biting. We do NOT bite in this family." She looked back at me with a smile and then tried to bite my extended finger. At this point her daddy, Aunt William and Aunt Genny all started to laugh. So I had to give them a "no laughing allowed" look. Then I looked at Audrey and again told her NO biting.

She hasn't tried to bite since, but I am afraid that it is just a matter of time.

My two front teeth

It is finally here!! Audrey's other top front tooth just broke through the gums. Soon she will be able to bite with both teeth and take an even cuter picture.

On a side note, all of this teething all at once is taking its toll on the mommy - who is v. tired. I am hoping this is going to be the last in this round. 3 in the span of a 10 days has resulted in lots of long nights.

Another Tooth!!

I knew Audrey was getting lots of teeth all at once. I can feel them right below the surface of her gums, but it is still fun and surprising to see which teeth make it out first.

The funny thing about the latest tooth, is that it is a top tooth on the left of her left front tooth. So she is getting teeth on either side of her mouth, making it so she still only has one matching set (top and bottom) that she can bite with.


Top teeth: 2 (all on the left side of her mouth)
Bottom teeth: 3 (1 left, 2 right)

Sorry if this is confusing, I will try to get a picture as soon as these latest teeth are actually visible.

Teething game

Audrey just had another tooth break through on the bottom. This is her teeth score:

Bottom teeth - 3
Top teeth - 1 (a bit of a cheat even because she busted her gums open to get this one out)

We are all hoping the top teeth make a comeback soon and tie up the game. Chewing will be so much easier with a few more teeth.

Snaggle tooth

Audrey's front bottom two teeth are old news. And several times I thought she was just about to get the top teeth, but they haven't popped out yet. That was until the garbage can helped her out - about two weeks ago...

Audrey was trying to push the kitchen garbage can again and tripped a little. She banged her mouth on the edge but didn't fall, so I thought she was okay, until we saw blood. She cut her upper gums on her left side. It all healed nicely within a few days, except for a little white spot of a tooth that was exposed on that side. Now that little white spot is really on its way down, while on the other side, the tooth is still hiding safely below the surface.

Somehow, Audrey manages to still look amazingly beautiful even with a snaggle tooth.

Teeth


I finally got a picture of her cute little teeth. She just has the two bottom teeth, but she makes the most of them and a bite from her can hurt. (Just ask her Aunt Bud, who got a good bite on the chin over vacation.)

Breaking news... A TOOTH!!

After what seems like several weeks of swollen gums and fussiness, Audrey's first tooth finally broke through her gums!!

As soon as it is visible, rest assured, there will be pictures. In the meantime, I could feel it with my finger. It is the front bottom left tooth and I am quite sure the bottom right tooth is just a few days behind.
