...is a drooling, runny-nosed, fussy baby. It's been a long month and a half. Harper has 4 teeth. Unlike other children who have multiple teeth come in at a time, Harper's teeth like to tag-team. They come in one at a time. The bottom two teeth weren't so bad...but the top ones? Yikes. I am somewhat impressed at the amount of saliva and snot my child can produce. The extra saliva is causing her to have some red spots on her face. This has something to do with the enzymes in her saliva while teething -- who knows, really. Apparently this is all normal. I also stopped breast feeding this month. A few days after Harper turned 11 months old, I decided to stop nursing. It was very emotional for me. Surprisingly, Harper didn't seem to care at all. Really. She went straight to cow's milk (although I have been mixing in some of my frozen breast milk.) Cow's milk before age 1? What are you thinking? Well, I talked to the pediatrician. She said it was pointless to get Harper to drink formula for a month and then transition her to cow's milk, so we went straight to cow's milk.
We went to Charlotte on Saturday for Mason's 1 birthday. He is the first of the trio of cousins to celebrate his 1st birthday. It was quite a drive for a 24 hour visit, but spending time with family is important. Harper enjoyed seeing her cousins.
Below are some pictures we had taken Sunday morning.
