Well, today was a big day all around! We had a baby shower for Hillary and baby Che, which was much fun. I will hopefully be swiping some photos to add here soon. Suffice to say, food was eaten, gifts were opened, fun was had. Judith also took some maternity photos of Hillary, which I think are going to turn out super cute (I was the stylist). Hopefully one of these might get added here later eventually too. Benhameen, as Mickey calls him, was not his usual sunny self today though. He was fussy and grumpy during the shower. He took a nap during the photo shoot, and woke up beside himself, just wailing and crying. It was really tragically sad. He was kind of pulling at his ears too, and so it seemed like maybe he had an ear infection. But he has also been really chewy and drooly, and it seems like some teeth are in the works. So Loren went to Target and bought a bunch of teething type aids - baby ibuprofin, teething tablets, baby orajel, "bighter biscuits", and these little mesh dealys that you can put frozen food into, and baby gets to suck on it, sort of like a popsicle. These were a big hit, since he is very intent on feeding himself. Hillary loaned out some teething rings too. After some drugs, and some icey pear treat, he was a much happier little guy. It looks like you may be able to see one little tooth poking through! Very exciting. I hope that the first one is the hardest. I'm not looking forward to repeating this performance 27 more times.
