Second kid syndrome
It's been a while since I've brushed the girls' teeth regularly. When the morning sickness kicked in, my already stretched-thin evening patience went right out the window. Add the wonderous nausea, and I could handle reading the story at bedtime, but brushing the teeth was pushing me over the edge. Rex took over tooth duty, and then it became sort of a habit that I'm happy to let him strengthen.
Anyway, I've only had to brush on rare occasions, which is why I surprised last night to notice that Katie has finally gotten a couple of her two-year molars. So far she's only got the bottom two. I'm thrilled that we couldn't tell by her behavior that she was getting teeth, but a little ashamed that it's been so long since I've been on her mouth that I didn't even notice two new teeth. Worse, Rex, who brushes her teeth nightly, didn't notice it either.
