Teeth and Illness

Two weeks ago Bennett went from having a single tooth to having teeth!  He cut three teeth within four days.  Thankfully it didn't seem too painful for him.  I thought he was going to cut the second tooth on the bottom or one of his front teeth but his second and third teeth to break through were the second teeth over on the top and then a couple days later the second one on the bottom broke through.  We're hoping the front teeth are the next to fill in the big gap!  It might look a bit odd but I pulled out Ella's baby book and Bennett is cutting teeth in the same order as his big sister!

Later in the week Ella started feeling sick.  She spent the entire weekend with a fever and a nasty cough so we headed to the doctor Monday morning.  Come to find out she didn't just have the typical virus I'm used to hearing, she had an upper respiratory infection, ear infection and she had the flu.  Poor thing really had it bad!  She's still getting over the cough and trying to get all her energy back.  Of course within a few days of that appointment Bennett starts running a fever so we head straight to the doctor since we were headed to Atlanta on Friday.  He has Bronchiolitis and an ear infection.  Despite being sick he's still the happiest baby!

If you click on the picture to enlarge it and look closely you'll see a tooth on the top left side.
Even when she's sick she still wants to wear a dress and tiara!
