teething troubles

Phew! The monster has abated!

The last couple of weeks have been a bit tough, but rather than the monster I thought the in-laws had created, instead I discovered on Monday the cause of the current grizzly behaviour - Mini's first teeth!!!

Once I realised what the problem was, it of course all seemed so much easier, baby coke was administered (at least I have been told that is the powders name on the street scene of Wimbledon, at the chemist I actually asked for teething granules.) I also resorted to the miracle cure of Calpol, which had the required effect.

Today Mini is restored to the little joy I can't quite believe is a product of the grumpy husband and my worrying self. She is chilled, giggling, splashing about when we took her swimming, and cutest of all, just learning how to kiss.

So now that the baby of the family is back behaving on form, I just have to manage the bigger baby. The Husband is wanting to watch a Stephen King film, only he gets scared easily so is insisting I watch it with him - think this sacrifice means a few babysitting sessions are owed!
