Coming from left field

Was playing Upside-down-tickle with Arddun on Sunday, where I flipped her upside down for a tickle. Pretty self-explanatory, yah.

That was when I realised another tooth had popped through.

Except it wasn’t quite the tooth I was expecting.

I’ll explain.

This is the chart found behind the Heinz baby rusk box. It states the order in which baby teeth are usually expected to pop through.

This is the order in which Arddun’s teeth have appeared: 1, 1, 7.

Yes. It seems our daughter has grown a fang. Not both, just the one on the left.

Not to worry. We’ve gotten her on a strict three-tooth brushing regime after each meal.

I come from a much smaller island-city-state-country called Singapore. I’ve been setting down roots in Australia since 2003. I love both countries immensely. In 1986, I became a writer. In 2002, a blogger. In 2004, a wife. In 2011, a mother. Somewhere in amongst all that, I did event and conference management, public relations, marketing, and online communications for over a decade. I’m currently a freelance web manager for a modern dance school, a part-time Communications and Marketing Manager, a part-time writer, and a part-time stay-at-home mother. I don’t sleep much.

I noticed that last night … mostly when I was changing her nappy and putting her into her PJ’s .. she was, er, expressing her dislike for the fact that her Mummy and Daddy weren’t there!! I do so love Miss Arddun!!
