Picnics and Teething?
This week Ian attended his first NICU Graduate Picnic. Every year the NICU invites all babies who spent time in the unit to a picnic. Ian was reunited with his first NICU roommate, Brenner while Mom and Dad enjoyed a hamburger (or two!). Ian has also been drooling a lot this last week and has now gone beyond putting just a few fngers in his mouth. He has begun jamming his entire fist into his mouth! We think the early stages of teething might now be here, so we gave him his very special teething ring (a solid silver Tiffany one, no less!). He loves it, especially when it comes straight from the fridge - the cool metal on his gums seems to be very satisfying!
