Day 188

Today was busy, indeed. We began early, as we have been lately. Penelope wakes up at 6ish, and is all bright-eyed and bushy tailed, ready for a party! Meanwhile, even Daddy (who is like that about an hour later) is still confused with sleep. I gave her a bottle and turned on the news, no point in fighting it. After going to town on a toasted bagel (see pics), she went back down at 9. We ran errands, packed for Seaside, took our evening walk and bathed baby-- whew, what a nonstop day! While I was making her laugh this evening, I noticed a teeny weeny tooth bud poking through her gums! It's on the bottom, and it's definitely there... :) That would explain her recent rough time at night-- it's like she falls asleep fine, then is woken out of nowhere and cries for close to an hour (on and off). I'll be keeping a close eye on her for awhile, temperature and for swollen gums. We'll do what we can to help ease her pain.

Here's pics from today... Goodnight, see ya tomorrow from Seaside! :)
