Hazel's 2nd Tooth

Hazel's 2nd tooth made its appearance today. It was her bottom middle left tooth.

Hopefully, this means we will soon get a break from teething woes.

A Banner Day

Many exciting things happened today!

Hazel got her first tooth. Her bottom middle right tooth appeared. I think that it is really interesting that Charlotte & Hazel got their first teeth within a few days of each other. I wonder if their other physical milestones will happen at approximately the same time. We'll have to wait and see.

In other big news for Hazel today, while on her tummy, she managed to scoot herself forward approx. 12 inches in order to reach a toy that she wanted. It took considerable effort, but she was very determined to find a way to reach the toy. If she can accomplish this already, I suspect that she'll be an early crawler.

Charlotte had a big day too. She rolled over for the first time. She rolled from her tummy onto her back. She looked surprised and happy when it happened. I could tell that she knew that she had just done something pretty cool. (My enthusiastic "hooray" probably also clued her into this fact.)

And Charlotte's second tooth appeared yesterday. The new tooth is her bottom middle right tooth.

Hazel and Charlotte are just a couple days away from turning 5 months old. Yet, technically, if they had been full-term instead of preemies, they would have just turned four months old on May 15th. We think they are doing great for their age.

First Tooth

Charlotte got her first tooth today at just 4 1/2 months old. It is her lower middle left tooth. Guess there was a good reason for all of that drooling and bursts of crankiness.

Hazel also appears to be teething, so I expect she'll get her first tooth any day now too.
