Two new teeth for Little Man


Jackson is currently staying with my mom during the day while I work FT. Thankfully they only live a few miles from where I work, so I can visit during the day. When I get there at lunch, my mom glows and she can't stop talking about all that she does with Jackson. She takes him swimming(gives him a bath), lets him scoot about (rides with him on her scooter), and tells him all about the Big Bad Wolf (their black cat)! He loves to hear about the Big Bad Wolf! His entire body whips around when he hears her start that phrase.
My mom has promised me that if Jackson does anything new, she won't tell us about it, she'll let me find out for ourselves. Well... Yesterday I received a voicemail, from my mom, that said I needed to call her. She said it in such an urgent voice, like always, but since I have been away from Jackson all week, I felt that maybe she was serious and it was urgent. When I called her, she said that Jackson has gone through a growth spurt and when I get home, I should watch him closer. And then she said it was oral! I'm not stupid mom!! Obviously Jackson had some teeth coming in?!
When I got to their house, I picked him up and loved on him, and then he smiled and I saw his teeth/gums. He has two teeth coming in on the bottom. They haven't broken through yet, but they will within a couple of days. Jared and I got him baby Tylenol and today... I rushed out at lunch and got Baby Orajel. He doesn't really like the taste of it, but he is SO much happier when it numbs his gums.
My little man is growing so quickly!! But man! He is so amazing and such a blessing!! I hope you will all get a chance to meet him! There are no words to explain what kind of joy Jackson is to this world! Just look at his smile and you will see what I mean!!
