One Deer and Two Teeth

That sums up our weekend. Saturday was opening day for deer hunting so Walter was gone all weekend hoping to get a deer. He ended up getting a doe on the first day just before sundown. So, Xavier will get his first taste of deer meat this winter. I'll spare you the graphic pictures of a field dressed deer, but here's a cute one I snapped last night of Walter and X when he came home from the long weekend. Xavier was thrilled to have him back and practically jumped out of my lap to get to Walter when he saw him come in the door.

So while Walter was gone I was left with a snotty nose teething baby. Yes, everyone should feel sorry for me. I thought Xavier had a cold. He was up 5 times Friday night and I was really wishing I had Walter for help! Saturday night was better once I figured out what was going on -- TEETH. Xavier cut a top tooth that I noticed Saturday evening, and then Sunday morning a new bottom tooth had appeared. This brings the grand total to 4 now. He already had the bottom 2 center teeth. Interestingly enough the 2 he cut this weekend are not the top centers. He cut a top tooth that is next to where the centers would be and then the one directly below that on the bottom. I don't see any more teeth that look like they are ready to pop so hopefully we'll get a little reprieve (and some more sleep!) the next few nights.
