Annabelle's first ride on Dad's shoulders last weekend at Balboa...About a week ago I called our pediatrician because Annabelle had been crying a lot and I couldn't find a cause. I have learned over the last year with her that she NEVER cries without a reason. She is a tough cookie and I know when I see tears that it's real business. I have read in baby books about babies who sometimes "just need a good cry" and nothing could be farther from describing my daughter.
So to have three days in a row where she would spontaneously cry without obvious cause had me mystified. I called the doctor's office and talked to a nurse. We went through a list of possible issues and didn't really come up with anything. The most probable was that she was teething, but she was refusing ice, gum rubs, teething toys, and wasn't drooling at all.
And then yesterday I poked my finger in her mouth and felt the sharp prick of two new molars! She my growing girl!
