just a quick funny anecdote, if you will...
if you have had the chance to see little Matilda's not-so-little teeth in the previous post, you will have a better appreciation for the story I am about to share.
I was at the dr.'s office when the nurse commented, like so many others do, about the size of Matilda's teeth. The lady, being of Latino decent, said, and I quote, "Whoa, mama's (referring to matilda--apparently Mexican for baby) got some big teeth, don't she? Her teeth are bigger than mine!"
With that, Nurse-face flashed me a big cheeser-of-a-grin to prove her point.
I replied, in shock, "Oh my word! I think you're right! Her teeth are bigger than yours!"
... so, I don't know what else to say. It was a good story.
That little mama (matilda) takes after her mama (me), and yes, I take after my mama(denise). Big teeth run in this family. Ah, another sign that the hospital definitely did not switch my baby with another one. (which, can you imagine such a thing?! But, sadly, it happens!)
And, to my darling baby, please know that you are absolutely PERFECT in every way.
That's all.

you kill me!!!
How funny! I wish you had a picture of the lady! I think I would rather have big teeth then tiny teeth.
Actually, what concerns me about the story is how potential SMALL that nurse's teeth must have been.
I mean, sure Matilda's got some noticeable teeth, but atleast you can see them, and it's not just all gum hanging out (which I thing is slightly less attractive than large teeth, and guess what we have that runs in our in-lawed familia?)
And seriously... why do they call all baby girls "mama" It totally is mexican for baby girl!!
That is heeeeeelarious! Why can't I just ride along with you in your pocket to enjoy your funny days! That is a great story, but even better the way you tell it! xo
