guess what we found in your mouth?


well, i'm sure you don't really have to guess. you're probably well aware of all the new teeth poking through, all over the place.

i was feeling to see if the molar on the right side was coming, or if that pesky, missing upper-right tooth was coming in. and i did find some bumps where the molar will be pretty soon. but i also found two more teeth on top that had broken through, just barely. the ones right behind the canines, on either side, on top. that brings the total to ten.

so with those two coming in, plus the one molar on the left still growing out, and the one on the right close to breaking through, i'm not at all surprised that you can't sleep soundly, or that you have buckets of snot coming out your nose all the time.

i know it seems weird that i wouldn't notice the teeth right away, as i look at you all the time and brush your teeth and stuff. but you see, it is dangerous to stick a finger in there, because you bite really really hard.

as long as you don't continue with the biting after you don't have an excuse to anymore (like 57 teeth all coming in at once), i guess we'll let it slide.

love, mom

p.s. that picture is of you in your friend layla's hat. you were much more agreeable during this hat photo session. thanks!
