canine buds are showing, finally

The upper two canines have cut through and I can see the tiny buds along with the red sore-looking gums around the two new teeth.

That's the good news.

The not-so-good news is that either the arrival of the caninies, or something unconnected, has made her moods rather pronounced - when she is happy, she jumps around, laughs, plays well, but, when she is upset, nothing seems good enough.

Maybe that's part of being a toddler. Maybe this is where tantrums start...

In any case, she seems to not wake up so many times and scream as much at nights for the last 2 days.

She does wake up early, calling out for me from her crib, and when I bring her over to my bed, she points to her diaper and in an anguished voice says, 'cheej bapoo, cheej bapoo' (change diaper) till I change her, and then she wants to get down from the bed and run around and play. At 5 or so in the morning, most days!
