World of Pain

Punk is cutting her last molar and (I think) some canines and she is c-r-a-b-b-y. She either wants to sleep a ton during the day and therefore not sleep at night, or she wakes up from her nap too early and then is a disaster by bedtime. Ugh. I can't wait until she has all of her teeth. Teething? Sucks.

She also was exposed 9 days ago to Hand, Foot and Mouth (Coxsackie). We thought we had dodged a bullet because she had nothing on her hands, feet, or in her mouth, but she DID have some bumps on her diaper area late last week... which apparently can be a sign. Also, she has two little blisters on her feet now. SCARED. She hasn't been to her day care since Wednesday (Thursday was Yom Kippur, Friday was my day off, then the weekend, then today was Columbus Day) and if she has to stay out for illness I will go berzerk. Berzerk, I tell you!

I had to work today because my agency was bought out by another agency who apparently does not believe in holidays. So I went to work (ugh) and my entire afternoon of clients cancelled (double ugh). My desk area has never been so clean.

My friend Morgan brought Jen and me a cake yesterday for our birthdays. YUM. I think I need to have some cake now. NOM NOM NOM.

yeah, teeth are full of design flaws. we go through all this crap to get them in the first place, and then we lose them just when they're really getting useful. and the second set doesn't last very long, either...

I wish we were working on our last molar around here...Z had 4.5 teeth 1 month ago. NOw he's got around 9-10 teeth. It's been a rough month, and we can see a handful more just under the surface. i think we've gone thru case of Dye-Free Infant Motrin.

Oh my gosh, poor Z and poor moms! That is an insane amount of teeth to be getting! Punk has had the 8 fronts for a long while now and she popped fractions of the two top molars a while ago. Then she got one of the bottom molars fully (it is HUGE) and now tiny bumps of the other bottom molar are out. I am starting to see canine bulges.

So unfair, this teething business. I am a walking zombie.
