Baby T teething???

I'm not sure, but I think Baby T is teething!  He was not his usually happy self at all yesterday and when we were getting him ready for bed he felt hot, so we took his temperature and sure enough....he had a temp of about 101 degrees!  We took his p.j.s off and applied peppermint (1:1, diluted 1 part coconut oil and 1 part peppermint) and lavender (1:1) and applied them on his back, the bottom of his feet, on the back of his neck and behind his ears.  We did this a 3 times over the course of an hour and a half before we put him to bed.  His temp was around 100 at that time.  He woke up at 12:30 am was still warm and so we applied them again.  He woke up again at around 4 am and his fever had broke!  He is doing great this morning :)  Now if only I could get a nap....
