toothless?

Well, at least not in this house! After a lot of chewing, drooling, and a few fussy nights, Miss Gwyneth has teeth! She flashed a big ol' smile last night and we saw that the bottom two middle teeth had finally broke on through. She looks so stinkin' cute. I'll do my best to get some pictures of those pearly whites soon!

Side note - my sleep schedule sucks! I know, with two kids under two it seems reasonable, but the girls are great sleepers (down at 7:30 p.m., up at 7:00 a.m.) so motherhood is not to blame at all. I drag all through the day due to lack of sleep and I'm exhausted by the time I get the girls down to bed. Around 8:00 p.m. I get my second wind (on some days - my first wind, really!). I feel wide awake and then can't fall asleep until well after midnight (last night it was about 2:30 a.m.). Of course, I'm not doing anything remotely productive but have managed to read a few books with all this newfound free time. I finished The Reluctant Fundamentalist which started off really good but got a bit dry for me at the end. I'm about 3/4 of the way through Escape which is the true story of a woman who escaped polygamy. Very good! My lack of sleep is making me a bumbling idiot during the day as I'm too tired to articulate my thoughts in an intelligent way. I can't even offset that with being 'well-read' because I'm just reading mainstream, pop-culture novels. Yawn, yawn, yawn!

I made poor B watch the first installment of the Twilight series with me Monday night. I didn't make it a secret that I was not impressed with the first 3 books in the series so I was settled in for a night of self-torture. It was a pretty cheesy movie, but overall exceeded my expectations. Luckily Mrs. Fessler recently watch it and liked it too so B is off the hook for the next movie!
