Mr Mom vs Baby vs THE DENTIST!


Ok full disclosure - i hate the dentists.. apologies to all the dentists out there reading this but honestly, other than the taxman, and quite possibly the tow truck driver, who else would you go to and expect bad news 99.9% of the time?

As you can imagine, i had to spend time in the 'chair' today. Got there around 9:30 and didn't leave till about 12:30. They had to basically cut the bone in the back of my mouth where the molar meets the gum in order to create enough room for a crown. If that wasn't bad enough, that just means that i've got at least another 2-3 visits to the dentist once more in order to follow up with the crowning! argh!

To add injury to insult, while the dentists was suturing me up, the freaking anesthesia wore off and i actually felt the last suture go in and out! She was extremely apologetic but it wasn't pleasant! Lucky for her, she was kinda cute so i let it go (hides from wife) hehe kidding!

Either way, i'm relegated to soft foods basically for the next week and as the SO so eloquently put it 'Ha ha, so you'll be eating Jalen's food along with him?'.. Gah, i say.. gah!

Didn't get to spend too much time in the morning with the ol diaper filler and in the afternoon we both took a well deserved 90 minute nap. He seems to be eating a LOT as of late, and his eating habits include eating a meal, and drinking a full 8 ounces of milk about 45min to and hour later. Anyone think this is kinda abnormal? Is my kid becoming the Chickety China the Chunky Jalen? (apologies to the Ladies)

Tomorrow being Wednesday i get to go to the dreaded Mother Goose once more. Man, i really hope they don't make me dance again. And being that my jaw hurts about as much as a $10 walker on seymour street, maybe i can't sing either. hmm.. food for thought!

K that's pretty much it for tonight - lotsa whinging i realize but hey, YOU try being a lone parent to a 9.5 month old!

No observations today, due to head fogginess from the copious amount of medication i've been taking!
