Teething Differences

My Starbright Baby has one big ol' front tooth, and the other one slooooowly working it's way through. This makes for little or no sleep at night. *yawn* is it nap time yet?!?

My first baby got his two front teeth after two horrible nights of no sleeping and no nursing.

My 2nd Starbright Baby I couldn't even tell! One day he had no teeth, the next he had them... LOL!

What has your teething experience been like with the top two teeth?

Freezer Giraffe Trick

Something I do for my little one when she's struggling with teething is give her something cold. It's hard to find something that is warm for her to hold, but cold on her little gums. My sister came up with the great idea to soak her Teething Giraffe's head in water, put it in a baggy and stick it in the freezer. Don't let it freeze all the way, but just get nice and cold. That way, your little one has the warm giraffe body to hold, and the nice cold giraffe head to teethe on. Try it out!

Winter go away!

We're getting sick of winter around here! (Or I know I am...) What do you do with your littles to cope with being cooped up indoors in the winter?

We have been trying to go to the YMCA 3 times a week. We also try to hit as many playdates and playgroups as we can. My Starbright Kiddo, who is newly 5, loves to go out and ride his bike in full snow gear. I like the snow if we don't have to go anywhere, but I'm an on-the-go type of person, so that's not often!

Spring, where are you?!?

What to do?

My littlest Starbright Baby is 9 months old (almost 10! Waaah! Where does the time go!) Right now, she and my 2 year old have epic battles over *his* favorite toy, his ride-on choo choo. (By "epic battle" I mean he says "No BeeBee! MY choo choo!!!" and drives it away while the baby wails in disapointment.) I am thinking about getting her the same toy, but then I just know the minute I do, they'll move on to other things to have epic battles over. I keep hoping the two year-old's obsession with his choo choo will go away so the baby can claim it, but it's not happening! *sigh* I think it's time to visit my local toy seller. :giggle
