Tooth chattering temps

Yesterday proved to be an all around frigid day. As if it wasn't cold enough outside, we spent a good portion of our day dipping into the freezer. Yup, Everlee has one bottom tooth that is cutting thru the gum, and another working on its debut.  Lots of ice cubes and teething rings were gone thru in attempt to subside the discomfort. In the end snuggles, singing, a bit of the baby channel, and a dose of pain reliever helped alleviate the pain. Well, at least for a few hours. We knew this day would come soon enough, and we both have been mentally preparing ourselves for this  nightmarish stage. So far, it's worse then imagined.  As a parent it's heartbreaking seeing your little one so uncomfortable, and feeling completely helpless in your attempts to remedy the pain :( hopefully this process will go by quickly! That is until next round.

Staying warm in -30 degrees, in true fashionista style.
Rocking while watching the tube was a nice distraction. 
And the pain reliever has set in.
Feeling good enough to do some crawling and planking.
Let me look on my laptop and see if I can find some home remedies for this teething process.
Looks like a relaxing bath is what Everlee 
discovered she needed.
