So Wren is teething! Her first tooth popped out on her five month birthday. For the past two weeks, her second tooth has been teasing us with it's arrival. Poor little thing is not a fan of her teeth. When her tongue finds them, she pouts. It's so sad. We keep telling her that she has to just get used to them, they aren't going anywhere for awhile! About the same time her first tooth appeared, Wren has also become very interested in food. I started giving her oatmeal last week and just the other night she had her first taste of avocado. My mom suggested giving her teething biscuits and as I began to research brands and varieties, I stumbled across recipes! This weekend I gave my first go to teething biscuits. They came out pretty tasty if I do say so myself, yet they were a little too soft and crumbly for Wren...until I froze them! She had her first taste today and seemed indifferent.
