Here are a couple pictures of George feeling much better enjoying one of his favorite new toys, a plastic cup.

My Teeth Hurt!!
The past two nights have been super-tough on poor George (not to mention his parents) with another tooth trying to make its way out. He has been sleeping through the night for a few months now, so we have been so spoiled! The last two nights he has woken up every few hours with hysterical crying and nothing seems to soothe him except nursing. I had hoped not to nurse him in the middle of the night anymore since I didn't want it to become a habit, but that has been his only comfort! Tylenol hasn't been working well enough, obviously, and I took him to the doctor today to make sure he didn't have an ear infection or something. She let us start Motrin IB, which is supposed to work better than Tylenol, so we'll see how tonight goes. Wish us luck!

Poor G! Hopefully that tooth will pop through and he will go right back to being an awesome sleeper. If not, you can just send him up here and he and James can hang out together during their middle of the night party times :-)
Don't feel bad about nursing him at night- he is still so young and wants are indistinguishable from needs at this point. You are helping him enormously by giving him what he needs. Teething sucks but this too shall pass!
