(update: i never posted this so its 3 wks late!)
Our little girl is a month closer to ONE and I want the time to stop. I am loving this age. She doesn't seem as fragile, but is still a baby. She is expressive and loves to smile and laugh but cannot run away from me cuddling her :) . She is seriously the BEST and CUTEST baby ever...its not like I am partial or anything!
Today Taylor's first tooth finally broke through on the bottom! We knew it was coming as she has been chewing on everything and drooling a lot! Sure enough, there it was this morning! She was running a low grade fever and a little fussy but was still a champ. Taylor has also had a Hemangioma(sp?) since she was born on her bottom. It has grown since she was born but seems to have about evened out the last few months. For those of you who are not familiar with what that is...it is basically a cluster of blood vessels on the surface of the skin that can grow up until they are about 1 year old. After that point they slowly start to shrink and most will eventually disappear. Taylor's is on the best place visually...in the middle of her left butt cheek. We hadn't had any issues with it at all until about a week ago. It started with a small dot in the middle that looked like a hole. I called the doctor and they said all was fine if it didn't bother her, there was no fever of visual inflammation. Fast forward 5 days and it is now about the size of a pencil eraser and she fusses when you have to use a wipe on it. So, we have been on the phone with Blue Fish Pediatrics (again). Since we are in Austin we have been referred to a pediatrician here so that they can check it out. Hopefully they will take us tomorrow and all is well. There can be serious issues with bleeding when they become ulcerated, so prayers dr. Says its ok and heals quickly!
