Jacob Is Teething!

No, Jacob doesn't have any teeth in yet, but it/they are coming in somewhere... Jacob's fussiness and drooling has been relieved on at least one occasion by Orajel and also by chomping down on a cold, wet washcloth. You can certainly tell that he wants to be a happy smiling boy, but that something just isn't right. He just needs to be entertained a little more now. His eating habits have also changed and are less than consistent. Sometimes he will take his 5 oz, other times 1 or 2 and sometimes 6. We think he is eating just enough to subside his hunger, but not enough to fill him up because he isn't feeling the best.

Friday will be Jacob's 4-month well baby visit with the doctor. This could make for an interesting time next weekend. Teething and four shots will make for one unhappy little boy. We'll just have to be playing with him that much more to get his mind off of things.
