Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water…He’s teething!

We just got Matthew off of Methadone. The long evenings when he was on the verge of withdrawal have, for the most part, subsided. But waiting just beneath the surface (literally) is Matthew’s first tooth. In the lower front of his mouth is an unmistakable sharp spot. I only wish these next few months were the only hard times Matthew had ever gone through.

Oh my gosh, his first tooth! Now we know why he was chewing on everything. Where's that little blue teething ring? He really liked chewing on that. This is just one more milestone for this darling little boy.

I love you. Grandma Sue

Watch your finger, Daddy ;) Did Matthew try a frozen wet towel? Alyson loved frozen wet towels.
