another new tooth

A few days ago, I noticed Diego's newest tooth on his left on the bottom. Don't know what tooth it is exactly yet, I need to check the diagram.

He's Mr. Fussybut right now. He whines and throws little fits a lot. I guess his teeth must be bothering him. He is a drool machine and is often gnawing on his hand.

new teeth

Yesterday, I noticed Diego has been hiding two new teeth on the top. The one on his right is the biggest (has been there the longest). The one on his left is much smaller, seems like it just broke through. That explains a lot of his behavior. I noticed one on his bottom left where the gum has been swollen for a couple of weeks now. I thought that is what was bothering him. I can't believe I missed it.

we have a toddler

Diego is now a toddler and that means a lot of things are different. One of those changes is that I don't have any time on the computer. He gets angry if I even think about sitting in this chair! So I didn't have a chance to write about his birthday party.

That was fun. We got the place all cleaned up (ha ha, sure we did!). We had about fifteen people. We bbqued. I made a huge amount of food! I doubled my normal salsa recipe and it turns out that I didn't need to do that. In fact, I think it might be time to toss that salsa out! I made quinoa salad with corn and black beans in it. I also did the roquamole except used maytag blue cheese. I think next time, I will go back to using gorgonzola.

Anyway, Diego was in very good spirits. No tantrums that I knew about. It was so nice to have so many people around to watch him. There were times when I saw Jason taking photographs and Diego was not with either one of us.

I chose a beach theme based on Jason's idea to have a palm tree on the cake. It was fun. I could have gone further with it, I had so many ideas but in the end, I didn't have enough time to get it all done.
