First Tooth

Lynnea has been fussier than ususal since we came home from our last hospital stay, and now we know why: she has her first tooth, and her second should come through any day now. I've only gotten a brief glimpse of this tooth -- she's being rather tight lipped about the whole situation -- but I've felt it, so I know it's the real deal. Also, since we've been home, she's been having all kinds of fun doing new things. She's decided that the black and white bag that's bigger than she is would make a great purse. . . it's never too young to start learning how to accessorize. She has also decided that her G-tube extension is a really fun thing to grab and tug on. . . it tastes pretty good too (we keep trying to tell her that she doesn't need to put it in her mouth because her food is taking a more direct route, but she won't listen). And, she has mastered yanking her Nuk out of her mouth, now we just wish that she would master putting it back in. We hope to continue enjoying our time at home until she goes back in to the hospital for her next heart catherization that is scheduled for June 4th at 8:00am.

Ashlyn has also enjoyed our time at home as a family. Potty training continues to go well -- we haven't had any daytime accidents for the past couple weeks (we still haven't switched her into a "big girl bed" so we continue to put a diaper on her at bedtime and nap time). She loves helping take care of Lynnea, and getting some quality time with Mommy and Daddy.
