Archer's third tooth - 7 months


Archer's third tooth broke through yesterday on his 7 month birthday. It is another one on the bottom on his left side. His first two teeth are in well now, so you can really see them in the picture above. I also weighed him yesterday and he is now 17 pounds, which is still the 16%.

Archer has not been sleeping well since I wrote the post titled "Good Sleeper" when he was 4 months old. He usually wakes up once a night now and the time he wakes up varies from midnight to 5am. He does go to bed earlier around 7:30pm, so sleeping until 5am is a pretty good night sleep, but of course our expectations are higher now. We think the disruption in his sleep may be due to teething as his first tooth came at 5 months. He continues to put everything that he can get his hands on into his mouth and has now started to drool quite a bit too. Thus, he continues to go through lots bibs every day. And, of course, he still spits up quite a bit as well, but that has gotten a little better now. But it's all worth it once we see that beautiful smile! :)
