All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth

I got maybe two hours of sleep last night. Rainey was up and down all night long. He didn't want me to hold him. He didn't want me to rock him. He didn't want me to walk him. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. When Chip left this morning, mind you 5'ish, I told him I couldn't do it anymore (meaning being up all night - I need my sleep). But now, I can do it. I can stay up all night because Rainey has cut his first tooth!!!!

That explains it....cranky, fussy, not eating, not napping. At 9 months 1 week old, he has his first tooth!! I am so excited and my exhaustion has seemed to fade (for the moment at least). I'm sure we'll be taking naps this afternoon.

ohhh how i remember the days! luckily nariahs came in pairs..well that was probably more painful for her! just think you only have to go through that about 20 more times! lol! i hope you both get the much needed rest! one thing that worked on nariah was the teething tablets and a frozen washrag to chew on..not totally frozen but you wet it and put in freezer for about 10 minutes....but rainey may not like it, seems every baby is different! good luck!

Thanks Tiffany! We tried to the teething tablets today. They seemed to work or he was just overly tired from not sleeping last night. We'll keep trying.
