Little Boy Update

So here's the latest.....
We went to the dentist this morning all prepared to have Travis' teeth pulled. I was trying to convince myself that it is the right thing to do. Well we walked in to the office and Dr. Erika came to meet us. She told us that she was thinking about Travis all night wondering how he was doing. We told he that he was his normal little self last night. Not acting as if he's in any pain and eating fine. We thought we would just give him puurua (oatmeal... not sure how to spell it in Finn...) because it was soft. Loretta had made us spaghetti pie and we were eating that and Travis was bugging for some. He had a bite and ate totally fine, so we gave him plate and he ate it with no problem. He also slept all night without any Tylenol or Motrin. SO, we came to the conclusion that maybe we can wait. If he shows any signs of being in alot of pain, or if his gums start to look infected than we have to bring him in right away. He's on an antibiotic already so that should help a little bit to keep that away. Otherwise, we are just going to watch them and see if they move back on their own, which sometimes happens, and check next month. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. So I guess now it's just a waiting game. We may be postponing the inevetible, but it's worth a try.

puuroa is the official version, but puurua is how you'd say it if you lived around pohjois-Pohjanmaa(where our family is from). Grandma(mummu) used to make us puurua ja soppaa when we were kids.
ps. glad Travis is ok :)
