Terrible Teething Twosome

Yep, that's right,  two children are teething. Harper seems to be dealing with it best- not too grumpy, just needs a little more cuddles and hugs than normal. Jack, well Jack is a different story. Let me give you some background on Jack. Jack was our baby A, so he was first out of the gate. He had the worst case of reflux. He also had slightly spastic limbs- his arms and legs would shoot out randomly at any time. It made him look like he was dancing to his own music. Jack is also our little Stevie Wonder- that boy has SOUL! When he gets grooving to the music his head is just going side to side and his legs are wiggling and his arms are just a'getting it!
Jack is also our little Pitiful One. When he is not happy, which is not too often, the ENTIRE WORLD comes to an end. He wails and sobs like his heart is breaking. It is truly Oscar worthy! So, the other night when we were driving home he decided that he wanted to go "THAT WAY!" He flung is arm up over his head and pointed behind him- for the rest of the twenty minute car ride, sobbing and wailing "No, My want to go THAT way!" At the top of his lungs, tears streaming down his face. Daddy and I were laughing (quietly of course) in the front seat, while we tried to calm him down and assure him that we were now driving THAT WAY.
That is our one little cobblestone for today- please join us again as we navigtate this windy little path.
