Molars…Great

Oh the crankiness.  MC is apparently acquiring more teeth.  I was really hoping for a little break here.  After the soaking shirt, random tantrums, and constant gnawing he decides he won’t eat.  Lunch times are becoming royally frustrating as I can’t find anything that he wants to eat.  What ever he thought was good yesterday he has decided today is pure poison.

I can only assume he’s getting molars, that’s all that is left to come in.  If he follows his past teething routines he will be popping two of those suckers at the same time.  I guess that’s good in a way…getting through it twice as fast.  I can’t help but wonder if he only got one tooth at a time if it would affect him as much.

So he’s tired, cranky and obviously uncomfortable.  And I’m now tired, cranky and frustrated.  Makes for some fun play time.  All of this is leaving me pretty uninspired.

Sorry for the break there!  I can’t believe it’s been a week since I wrote here.  In my defense we did have a long weekend last weekend and we got busy doing some much needed home projects. 

The garage got tidied a bit.  We’ve got 9 bags of actual garbage ready to go, as well as two boxes of stuff for the reuse centre.  We also cut our lumber to make a cedar planter box.  However we ran out of time since we actually expected the weather forecast to be correct (an obvious error on our part) so it’s in the garage waiting to be put together and put in the yard so that we can start planting.  Right now we’re thinking some herbs and maybe a few veggies.

I think MC is getting more teeth.  He is cranky and spent most of this morning alternating between hitting me, the dogs, and the walls.  Fun times.  I’m guessing these are the back molars since he’s got all the rest already.  His shirt is soaked from drooling so much and he’s constantly chewing on whatever toy he happens to be playing with.  The best though is the complete refusal of food…not even juice.  I’m not sure how long this is going to last but if he follows his past routines we’re looking at a couple of weeks and since he usually gets two teeth at once this should suck, royally.

Waiting and waiting for the weather to be nice so we can go hang outside again…It’s been cold and wet for a few days now.  I guess that’s spring though.
