Woody Woodpecker

My son is a woodpecker! That little sinker chewed up his crib. I guess teething got the best of him, he must have needed something to gnaw on pretty bad. It’s funny but it’s not, you know what I mean? Speaking of teething, Rayce still only has 8 teeth. It kind of looks like he has some coming through on the top but so far nada. Poor little guy, teething is rough. If it’s anything like wisdom teeth I feel his pain.

In other Rayce news: we’re trying to conquer tantrums. :/ I know it comes with his age and where he is right now developmentally but lord help me on some days. Rayce is one of those kids that you stare at, at the grocery store. He throws fits anywhere and everywhere. Yesterday we went to Lowes and he would not sit in the cart. Not only did he wanted to get out at walk around (which was fine) but he also wanted to push the cart on his knees. Imagine the looks I got from that one. Then after that blew over, he wanted to stand in the back part of the cart, not sit but stand! Oy! I tell you it has been a challenge but we will make it through, one way or another.

Odds and Ends

There's not really anything juicy in the tabloids today so I figured I just cover some of the odds and ends going on around here.

First thing is my flowers from Valentine'S Day have bloomed. They are oh so pretty!


Also Rayce got a package in the mail today from Grandpa in Las Cruces! Inside were some handsome Stride Rite shoes! I love love these shoes, they are some of the best made out there for babies. So cute!


Last but not least I wanted to share some pictures I've taken recently of Rayce. It's not easy to take pictures of him lately but I managed to get a few.

I think he's gonna be a vacuum repair man!


Look at all those teeth!


He loves his sippy!


I hope everyone is having a great week.

Teefy's

Rayce now has 2 teefy's! He cut his second tooth this past weekend. I love when he smiles at me and all I can see is those cute little teefy's.

Houston we have a tooth

Last night was the night from H-E-double hockey sticks. Rayce woke every two hours and was whimpering and whining. It was obvious something was wrong but we just didn't know what. So I gave him some Tylenol and exactly 4 hours later he was right back where we started so then I knew for sure he was in some kind of pain. Let me just state for the record as a mother this is the worst thing in the world, knowing your child is in pain and not knowing where the pain is coming from. So, we made it through the night (with lots of help from dad) and tired nonetheless. To my surprise this morning Rayce had popped a tooth! I always check his gums in the morning just to see if anything is going on in there and yes indeed this morning he had something in there. I feel so bad for the little guy, all that whimpering last night was from his little tooth. Bless his heart poor little thing being a baby is so tough isn’t it!?!
