Preston's Hard Week

Poor little Preston has had a pretty hard week.  He's been a little fussy and I assumed it was the ear infection he was diagnosed with last week.  This morning I noticed his bottom two teeth (on the sides) had poked through his gums.  That explains it!  I knew one was coming soon, but had no idea on the other.  This brings the total chomper count up to 8, and I'm pretty sure a couple more are on their way.  His molars seem to be right on the surface.  Right now he wants to bite on everything, especially my finger.  I can't believe he might have 10 teeth soon.  What an early teether!  He's been so tough throughout all the growing pains babies have to endure.  It's not easy being a baby!  And to top off his difficult week, we had to take him for his monthly shot today, which is incredibly painful.  I cannot describe the range of emotion I feel on these days. To watch your baby suffer as you help hold him down while the doctor gives him an injection is truly indescribable.  It's rough on all of us!  Hopefully next week is better for my little man!
