teeth and such

I should have posted this a least a week ago, but haven't. I've been told that I'm not updating enough so here goes the past two weeks or so since the last big update.

Kathryn has two new teeth. Nope, not the top ones. The next two on the bottom came in out of the blue. She now has four across the bottom. I still think the top two have got to be close. I think now I can see white, so maybe that's promising. But at the same time, I see bumps where the next two bottoms could be soon also. That could explain a lot. I found the two new bottoms by accident. I was feeding her Cheerios (about the only thing she'll eat anymore) and noticed something on her gums. Went to wipe it away and felt teeth! I had to apologize to her. I knew her teeth had to be bothering her, but I kept numbing her upper gums, not the lower ones! Poor thing. No wonder she had been cranky!

And within a week of crawling she was pulling herself up... and then walking around the table. The new thing in the past few days is that she has learned to sit back down. She'll put one arm out to balance herself, I guess, and then plop... and then right back up. She'll do this for about ten minutes before she stops and goes back to something else. It is quite amusing to watch.

Still not sleeping. Last night it was every two/two & half hours wanting to eat. I don't get it. She's also decided that she only wants to eat Cheerios which makes meal times fun. I can only get about half a tub of stage 2 into her before she gets cranky. As you as you give her Cheerios she's happy and laughing.

She's saying baba, dada, and mama pretty well now. You can even get her to switch between them if you change what you are saying. I don't think she means dada and mama to mean us, but we like to think it. I actually think she says mama to mean more when she's eating.

I apparently haven't put any pictures on this computer lately so I'll have to get the memory card or the lap top later and posts some pictures.
