molar skating

well, the molars i've been wishing and hoping for are finally pushing their way out into this side of the world, and it's making william miserable. we are just past 24 hours of a fever and grumbliness. he's making his first forays into the land of liquid tylenol and though it is purple and flavored like the grapes of popsicles and lolipops, he despises it. also, he has lost his appetite, and for those of you who have seen william eat, this is like royalty suddenly going bankrupt.

this picture was taken pre-molaritis, but i think it conveys to the reader what a more somber william is all about...


in reality, he was just tired in the above shot. this was taken last weekend when he and greg went to blue mounds state park while i went to work. this weekend it will be greg who works while william and i face the consequences of being able to grind up ones food.


hopefully by tomorrow, or at least sunday, he will look and be cheerful... like this...

yuck. teething. it must have been terrible! then, we stopped growing teeth and had to get braces. sigh.
if you need assistance with how to get a kid of any age or persuasion to take purple tylenol day or night (mostly night), i have 5 years of experience. i don't envy you- at least i got paid. smooches- auntie teenut
