Thank you to everyone who sent Matt your well-wishes. As you probably read yesterday, the wisdom tooth extraction went well. If you want more details than that, read Matt's comment on yesterday's post. It has more details than I cared to give, especially only hearing them secondhand. He is doing better today. He's still in some pain but hasn't even taken his prescription pain meds since early this morning. He even tried "real" food a little while ago, if you can call a piece of bread "real." We're all glad that so far Patrick has stayed the only baby in the house.
And I hate to try once again to explain away unintentionally hurtful words, but really, really, really don't feel bad if you had told us a wisdom teeth horror story. The one that was haunting Matt wasn't told by any of you. I'm sorry to tell all of you that apparently none of you have the worst story about wisdom teeth (although, Alissa, with your getting wasted and popping stitches story is probably the funniest). I think you would have had to mention medieval instruments of torture to get close.
Patrick's doing a good job of going with the flow with all the craziness around here yesterday and today. I think he wants Daddy to smile and play with him again, but he seems to understand that Daddy doesn't feel up to it. He really is a perceptive little kid.
He took one more step towards crawling yesterday. He was able to push himself up on his knees a little bit and use them to propel him forward on his belly. It wasn't very coordinated, but it was a step in the right direction--forward.
I was attemtping to entertain Patrick a few minutes ago and started playing him all the videos I have of him on the computer. He was having a great time. He imitated whatever the baby on the video was doing. If the video Patrick laughed, Patrick laughed along with him. When that baby talked, Patrick talked too. When he bammed, Patrick bammed too. I wonder if he realized that baby was also him. It certainly kept him entertained for a long time, though. And watching him watch himself kept me plenty entertained as well.

I'm glad Matt continues to feel better. I hope it heals fast! What an adorable picture of Patrick, and I can just imagine him playing with and imitating the baby in the video. How sweet.
