As I am quickly learning, the life of a stay-at-home-mom is never dull! (In case you haven’t figured it out yet, this is Emily! My first post…yippee!) This week, Owen gained more independence, and I lost a little of my freedom. Gone are the days when I could put Owen in the middle of my bed and expect him to stay put. This week, Owen has become mobile…he rolls!! And boy is he thrilled about it! Every time he does it, he has a huge smile on his face and giggles. I don’t mind losing a little of my freedom when I see how happy he is about his newly found mobility!
As the picture would suggest, Owen has also started teething in a serious way. Drool pours out of his mouth and soaks his shirts, his fingers are constantly shoved in his mouth (which is cool with me except when I realize that Max has just finished licking his fingers…what are you gonna do?), and teething rings are my new best friend!
After an afternoon of fussy Owen, I was looking for something to soothe his sore gums. I pulled a chilly teething ring out of the fridge, stuck it in his mouth and expected to have to hold it for him (like I usually do). But, much to my surprise (and Owen’s, too!), the teething ring stayed in the mouth! What a day…
