Dade update

I've been HORRIBLE at blogging lately.  Even now I've got some stuff that I need/want to get done, but I'm forcing myself to do a blog.  I shouldn't say forcing, but you parents know how it is, once the little one is down for the night you can get some stuff done.

Dade's front bottom two teeth are coming in, and it's creating an uncomfortable baby. He's still being his normal awesome self, just a little bit more fussy than normal.  I noticed early this week that he was pulling his ear.  At first I thought he had just found his ear, but he continued to do it.  He's been running a low fever because of the teething, but I thought maybe he had an ear infection. This morning his normal routine did a huge change when he didn't want to play, and just wanted to be held and sleep. When Clint got home we took him to see his doctor. I LOVE our doctor's office because they have urgent care EVERYDAY!!!  So even though it was  a Sunday, we still could take him in.  The doc said that he doesn't have an ear infection, it's just the pain from the teething moving up his jaw line to his ear.  When he pulls his ear he relieves some of the pressure.  The doctor said we are doing everything right, meaning Baby Orajel and Tylenol about every 6 hours of so to help with the teething.  He seemed to think that Dade's front bottom teeth will break through the gum line very very soon.

Dade is a rolling machine.  I rearranged the living room yesterday and we gave a friend of ours, our coffee table. Dade has a ton of room now to move around in the living room without getting hurt. He's starting to get his legs underneath him to crawl, but can't seem to get the front half up at the same time.  It's very cute to watch.  I'll have to video tape it sometime.

Alrighty. Now I don't feel so bad about blogging.  If you want an update, shoot me a comment and beg for a blog, then it will get me going.

OH YEAH! Before I forget, I've already found one of Dade's Christmas presents. Check this out!

It's the Retro Rocket by Radio Flyer: With realistic astronaut and space sounds, the Retro Rocket from Radio Flyer puts kids "in the driver's seat." The rolling wheels that activate lights and sounds, and additional features include a clicking nose cone, and cool retro styling.

It's going to be an awesome Christmas!
