Seven months
Simon turned seven months old today. The difference between six and seven months feels huge to me, and I know I’ll blink and the summer will be over and he’ll be turning one.
We’ve had a rough couple of days with Simon’s teething. He’s very clingy and, as Christopher says, emotionally fragile. I’m pretty sure I saw the outline of both bottom teeth today, so I’m hoping I’ll see two little chompers emerge in the next few days. Meanwhile, distraction is key to keeping him happy. Trips to the backyard with dad to look at the trees and flowers are very popular, as is massaging his gums by gnawing on rubber ducky’s head during bath time.

If you haven’t tried Camilia for the teething you really should. You can get it in the health food store and it comes in those little vials like that gas stuff you were giving Simon. It seems to work well with Hannah’s teething.
he is just so bright eyed - you must be exhausted with the teething - i hope they cut soon…he’s just the cutest looking little guy ever!!!
