FIRST TOOTH!

YAY! I was soooooooooooo excited today to see a little white tooth peeking through Maxwell's upper gumline!!! He has been teething forever and ever, and I have just been waiting and waiting!

AND Maxwell also got his first lil' pimple this week. hee hee! I know, I know...it's a weird "first" to have, but it was super cute! I think it may have been due to his current excessive steroid medication. (Max has been on heavy prednisone for his most recent respiratory distress issues, and he was on longer than usual this time. And wow, does that drug get him wired up! He has been a wild man for weeks now, and even as we are weaning him off...he still is crazy!)

I was teasing him today that perhaps we need to run to the drug store for some Clearasil and toothpaste!!! Mighty Max is growing up! :)

Congratulations Max! The first tooth is SO EXCITING! I've been trying for weeks to get a picture of Dylan's first tooth and haven't had any success. If you do, please post! I'd love to see!

Hooray Max (and probably a bit of a relief). As for the pimple, there are many of those to come.

Congratulations again!

So glad you're back. Wow a pimple! Cameron's first tooth was at four days of age when it came through in his cleft - so I say put the date of Max's first pimple in the baby book! :>)

Isn't it typical, you leave for one day and he has 2 firsts! Brady rolled over for the first time the first day I went back to work and had to leave him. Talk about a guilt trip! Little stinkers, they grow up right under our noses, it's like watching time pass in fast forward. Makes me understand when our parents say "It seems like it was just yesterday..."

Okay, Max, now that you have a tooth, it's time to start eating a little "on your own"... okay, little buddy??? God bless you, little guy, and your new tooth-- and even that pesky pimple!
lots of love to you both--
