Yep, I'm serious. I'm greatful for teething. You want to know why? Because without it, i'd just have to admit that I have a fussy baby who still sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night and likes to throw major tantrums.
As it is, at least I have a scapegoat to blame everything on. What's that? Riley took one bite of his food and then spit it out all over the place? He must be teething. Riley woke up two times last night? Surely he's teething. Riley is rolling around on the floor, screaming at the top of his lungs because I got tired of carrying him around and put him down. Teething, teething, teething.
Seriously though...Riley has been sooooo soooo fussy these last couple of weeks. He was sick for a few days and had a high fever of 103 off and on. The doctor said it was just a virus. It was weird though, because he didn't have any other symptoms other than being really hot.
And I think teething is at least a small part of the problem. He has three teeth completely in now, and two more trying to pop their way through. I feel bad for the little guy. It must hurt. I'll be honest though---I mostly feel bad for myself! No one warned me that tantrums started at age 1. I thought that didn't happen until the terrible twos.
Good thing Riley is so cute. It makes it all worth it.

I feel your pain! Kathryn never had a temp but she was fussy for a couple weeks before teeth finally popped through... even now she just got her eye teeth and was fussy for a bit. She is better than she used to be though. Good luck!
be careful lacey....Riley and I were talking the other day...and the combination of you not letting him in the bathroom and getting new teeth....he said he just might bite you. Just wanted to let you know
thanks for the heads up Becca. I am glad to know you can talk baby talk. I'll have you be riley's translator from now on.
