All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth

So we're not just getting one lower tooth breaking through the lower gums of our little boy... That's right folks, both lower front teeth have decided to make an appearance for the holidays and they are officially driving Christopher crazy. You wouldn't know it from the look on his face in this picture above but he is both teething, suffering from a cold, experiencing lovely gas pains, and he has now gotten his very first ear infection. So just try to figure out when he is crying at night which issue to tackle first! I don't quite know how Chris maintains his joyous demeanor in the face of all these discomforts, but thank goodness he does. And I can't say it enough--thank goodness for Kasey. When she is home, Christopher has a running monologue on her behalf. It doesn't bother him that Kasey just looks the other way when he is talking to her. He has no self-esteem problems anyway... Back to the ear infection, he started grabbing his right ear yesterday and sure enough, when we went to the doctor this morning, it was infected. This should really make our plane ride extra fun on Saturday. Hey Jack, can we get a private jet back to New York please? More importantly, when Chris was weighed today, he was up to 19 pounds, 2 ounces. Any NFL teams looking for a linebacker?
