Obviously I'm a first-timer

The past couple of days Wyatt has been fussier then usual. And for a boy that can go most days without fussing or crying at all, when he does fuss we know that something is up. So I felt around in that little mouth of his and sure enough, he has two teeth on the top that are trying their hardest to come through. Right now he has 3 teeth, his two bottom middle teeth and one on the top just left of his center tooth. They all came through relatively easy, but these ones are proving differently so far. So the other night as I was getting him ready for bed I though, "hmm Wyatt, how about a little ora-jel on those teeth?" Well...he has never had this before so what an adventure that was. First trying to put some on a little squirmy boy that doesn't want your fingers in his mouth to begin with was a challenge, but his face that followed I'm not sure words can even describe. I thought steam was going to come out of his ears he turned bright red and his eyes got nice and wide and the most startled look came across his face followed by pure shock. I'm sure if he could talk the next words out of his mouth would have been a string of profanities followed by "What the heck was that?" As if that wasn't enough.....I gave him the ora-jel before I finished nursing him for the night, so I attempt to finish and what ensued had me laughing so hard I was crying! Apparently in my attempt to bring some comfort to his gums I had also numbed his lips because he kept trying to nurse and close his mouth to do so but couldn't feel his mouth and would pull away and squish his mouth up and make the funniest faces, he tried again and again, I'm sure he was so confused! At one point he even reach up and grabbed his lips like "work you stupid things!" I felt bad but it was so funny that Wyatt even started laughing because I was laughing! At least he's already learned to laugh at himself, now I just need to learn proper application for Ora-jel!
