Fairy Tale

It's official, Ethan is getting a molar. Left side bottom. Needless to say i have purchased Tylenol,Ibuprofun, and Hyland's teething tablets.  Lord help me now.  He already chewed on everything. Now he chews on ANY and EVERY thing.  Nothing is off limits to his mouth.  Tags from clothes,my arm,my fingers,his arm, his fingers. I cannot be sure,but I think he tried to chew Marley's tail this morning. She had the sense enough to run before it hit his mouth.  And his teeth are sharp.  Little piranha teeth gnawing away.  I am constantly digging stuff out of his mouth.  I will be lucky if I can survive this stage without having a heart attack.  Why isn't their a teething fairy?  Just for parents of children who are cutting teeth.  Oh, how nice it would be for them to swoop down and leave the perfect teether under my pillow one night.  Or better yet, just wave her magic wand and *poof* the tooth is in!  Hey, a person can dream, okay.   On the plus side, he gained some weight.  He is up to 19.5 lbs.  (I hope it is from food and not the inanimate objects he keeps picking up off the floor) Also he is growing taller. 31 " now. He is my big boy!  My big cranky boy with lots of drool.  And a hankering for something to chew on.
