Bathing and Teething
Abraham loves bath time. He would play in the water all day if I let him.
And those little teeth that made me cry. No, not because of being bitten, although I have been bitten more than I would care to mention. As Abraham was getting his teeth, I remembered seeing a picture of Ellie with no teeth, and I had thought, I can't even remember her looking like this with no teeth. Then I realized that I would not remember my sweet Abraham the way he was, with no teeth. For the rest of his life, he would have teeth, and that is all I would know and remember. I hugged my little toothless baby and cried... and my husband thought I was crazy. :)

I definitely don't think you're crazy. Believe it or not, I didn't want Helena to get her teeth because she was so cute without them and I thought it would decrease with teeth. Mine was a crazy thought, not yours.
No worries. The mommies get it.
