The tooth that wouldn't give up

I think we all had one of these baby teeth, at least I know I did. The one tooth that decides its not ready to come out yet and no matter how much you wiggle and waggle the stupid thing it just won't come out! This tooth of Kenson's has been really loose for about two months now. The adult tooth just keeps pushing it forward instead of down and out. It looks pretty hilarious as you can see. For some reason it has a tenacious hold on one corner, but the other corner is not even attached to the gum. Of course, if Kenson would let us get a hold of it, Mom or Dad could probably encourage the nasty thing to come out. I say nasty because, Mr. Kenson doesn't really like to brush it since it's half way out. According to him it hurts when he brushes it. After a few days of neglect it starts to take on a Dorito like appearance. Mom then has to assist him in brushing in that area.

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving! Here are some pics of our day. The picture of the boys and Chloe was taken at the annual Thanksgiving dinner at Bethel.

Kohen update

Baby Kohen is doing great. He was a little fussy the first week. I got the impression that he was really enjoying being a fetus and being expelled into the outside world was not his idea of a good time. He has finally stopped screaming during every diaper change and is sleeping for longer periods of time. Best of all, he isn't wanting to nurse all day. The first night in the hospital was roughbecause no matter how much he ate he never acted satisfied. I kept having the recurring thought "a little Similac never hurt anybody". I toughed it out though and everything is better now.

His big brothers are totally in love with him, so much that they gave him an eye infection last week. I have no proof it was them. It actually could have been anyone,but I'm highly suspicious of the boys since they always have their hands on him. The doctor gave us some ointment then checked him again today he got a clean bill of health.

I wanted to share something funny that Kenson said at the hospital. Kohen was born with really long fingernails that needed a good trimming. Kenson was also overdue for a manicure and when he noticed the baby's fingernails, he said "Look Mom! He's got my fingernails!"
