One last resort.



Dear Reese's little body,

I know you're pretty upset about the new teeth that are forcing their way in on your swollen and irritated gums. I know that you're angry about Reese's new idea to starve that tummy that has been full since the day he was born. I even bet you're getting tired of the tantrums that he's learning to throw--your head must ache from hitting the floor during the I'm-going-to-arch-my-back-until-you-give-me-what-I-want stage. But please. Ease up on the horrific diapers. Reese's little bum [and my keen sense of smell] can't take it much longer.

Love you,
Mom

What a patient mother you are! I hate diaper rash!!! Good thing desitin was invented - that stuff does wonders!

Classic picture Jordan. Poor little man and poor poor mama. Good thing you know the teething will come to end and sweet Reese will be back. Hang in there!!

SUCH a cutie! It's like their heads are gargantuon at this age and everything else is tiny. It's amazing how they grow up so fast though too. Wanna pinch that hiney!

Did you get those teething tablets yet? They help with diaper days!

May I also suggest a helmet? Yes, he may get teased by the other babies throwing tantrums, but they won't be bruise free on the face like Reese would. Just do it and finish him off with knee pads and arm pads too...to make the look work!

Happy Mothering!

Ahhhh...if only their little bodies would actually listen to the letters we send them. At least he has a cute bum.
