So remember last week and that stinky day? Well...it turned into stinky week. He was just so crabby, would scream a ton. His eating and sleeping habits changed too. There were cute moments when he wanted to cuddle, but were usually very short moments. It took us until Sunday to figure out what was causing it.
Still looks bald here
Just thought he looked funny
Kyle had put his finger in the Dak's mouth because for the last couple months he just loves to chew on them. This time an "ow" came from Kyle as he noticed a tiny sharp object protruding from Dak's gums. He had cut his first tooth. The one next to it looked like it'd be coming soon. It didn't happen until this morning. Hopefully this means the LONG week is over. He's very dramatic with it, but we found a mix of oils to put on it. It makes him pretty happy...except for the taste. And I don't blame him. I have a bad, traumatizing experience with clove oil...but i do know it works to help. Unfortunately it took me until Monday afternoon to go pick up something. I tried to take a picture of his teeth, but since they're small and he's wiggly all you notice is blurry pink stuff. I did manage to snag a video of me giving him the oil. The first times were the funniest, but I didn't think of it then. So these are him after a while, still showing his dislike.
The weekend was filled with Kyle doing lots of homework and projects. And when he does lots of homework, then its just lots of me and Dexter time. We did get some cafe rio for our date friday night and watched a movie at home. Also, I got Kyle to go to SLC's Extreme Yard Sale saturday morning. There was quite a few people selling things however, it was mainly crafts, collectibles, and decorations. But it was a beautiful morning, and a nice park. I was just happy to get outside and do something with our little family.

Soon also I'll start to really have to keep my house picked up. We know he can roll over, although almost everytime it's when we're not watching. But now...he can pivot around. He can scooch on his back slowly to places. And yesterday we noticed he can advance forward. Not crawling, but somehow scooches his body forward with random kicks and grabs. He can almost roll back to front. I'm not ready for the almost 5 month old to move around.
Getting really mad at the toys cause he can't put them in his mouth

Got the camera strap...next mission the camera
Ready for his closesup
That's it this week. Not too much rambling. I'm just hoping that his pain will soon leave, so that Dex can have better days. I'm sure it wasn't fun for him either.
He was being cute and I don't get lots of pictures with him
Holy cow! My baby is 9 1/2 months old and still doesn't have any teeth! (He did give me a hickie on my wrist today, but that's definitely NOT the same problem!) Poor little Dexter!
