Teething Troubles
Evie just quickly left Carlos and Jay's dorm as she went running to the woods which she knew was Uma's favorite spot. When Evie got there she sighed in relief as she had been right and Uma was in the woods with the crying toddler.
"Okay Tiny Tot now sit down right there. Okay great! Now I'll be right back just stay there. Stay! Stay! Stay! Good girl!" Uma told the toddler as she placed the toddler down in the woods and began to walk backwards away.
The toddler just kept crying as she got up and began to follow Uma. "No! I said stay!" Uma screamed out and the small girl just smiled a little when she saw Evie approaching, "Mommy!" The small screamed out excitedly as she stood up from her spot and reach up.
Uma didn't see Evie and so she thought the toddler was being crazy. "No! Your mommy is not here," Uma told the toddler. "Mommy wi dew! Mommy!" The small girl told Uma as she got up and ran towards Evie who immediately picked her up and just held her so close as she had missed her baby girl so much.
Uma just looked over and saw that Evie really was there. "Oh you have some explaining to do princess!" Uma screamed out as she walked over to Evie clearly upset and angry.
Uma just looked at Evie who was now glaring at her. "Me! You're the one that almost left a two year old in the woods! I can't believe you would actually just leave a toddler in the woods! What is wrong with you!" Evie screamed out to Uma who was equally as angry.
" I told you I would do it! And you're one to talk! I can't believe you just threw that thing at me and took off! It's so annoying and it doesn't stop crying and chewing on things!" Uma screamed out and Evie just rolled her eyes as she looked at the toddler that was chewing on her fingers again and realized she had more important things to deal with than arguing with Uma.
"Aw does your mouth hurt," Evie asked the toddler as she was pretty sure already what was going on as Evie had done a lot of research on parenting sites and so she knew pretty much everything that toddlers go through and how to deal with them all.
The small girl just continued to cry as she nodded her head. "Okay well can you open your mouth for me, so I can check it out," Evie asked the toddler who just nodded as she opened her mouth and Evie immediately saw that there were teeth in the back of the toddler's mouth on the bottom that were starting to pop out just like she had suspected.
Uma just looked over at Evie like she was crazy as she had no clue what Evie was doing. "What are you even doing princess!" Uma asked Evie who just smiled as she looked at Uma. "Uma she's teething. That's why she was so cranky. Teething is painful for babies," Evie told Uma who looked at Evie like she was crazy again.
"What! That thing is teething! Don't those creatures stop teething before they evolve into toddlers!" Uma screamed out in shock as she was pretty sure toddlers weren't supposed to still be teething. Evie just rolled her eyes as she looked at Uma.
"No between the ages of two and three toddlers start teething again. That's when they get their two year old molars," Evie told Uma who just looked at her in confusion. "What the heck are molars! Gosh why are toddlers such weird creatures!" Uma told Evie who just laughed as she looked at Uma.
"Your molars are your back teeth and everybody has them including you," Evie told Uma as Uma was acting like that was just a toddler thing. Evie then began to massage the toddler's gums with her finger in which Uma just looked at her in disgust.
"That is disgusting! Why are you sticking your fingers in her mouth like that!" Uma told Evie in disgust and Evie just rolled her eyes again as she continued to do it, making the toddler stop crying as Evie's massaging was easing her pain a little.
"I'm massaging her gums. According to the parenting sites that I read massaging the gums with your fingers can ease teething pain. And it seems to be working. Would you rather her be crying again. And besides she's still not potty trained yet, so it's not like this is any grosser than that," Evie told Uma who just looked at Evie in even more disgust.
"Okay I did not need to hear that!" Uma told Evie who just laughed. "Yeah well you brought that on yourself. Now let's get back to the dorm, so I can give her one of the teething toys that I have since they are supposed to help relieve the pain more than this," Evie told Uma as Evie had been prepared especially since the last time she had taken Mal to the dentist her dentist had warned Evie to be on the lookout for teething and explained to her how to deal with it.
"Gosh why are you always so prepared!" Uma screamed out and Evie just laughed as she looked at Uma while trying to calm the crying toddler. "Because I'm a good parent," Evie told Uma as they entered the dorm and Evie tried to place the toddler down, but the small girl just started crying again as she clung to Evie.
Evie just smiled a little as she grabbed a teething toy that she had bought as she handed the teether toy to the toddler who grabbed it and immediately began to chew on it smiling a little as her pain was starting to lessen again.
Evie just smiled again as she sat down on her bed while holding the toddler that was chewing on her teether. "Well that's a relief it's finally over," Uma told Evie who just laughed as she found it funny how little Uma knew about kids.
"Not exactly. Teething lasts for at least a week per tooth and right now only her two bottom molars are coming in. And if you think this teether toy is enough to completely stop the crying and pain then I have some new for you," Evie told Uma whose eyes just widened as she looked at Evie.
"Are you serious!" Uma practically screamed out and Evie just laughed again as she rocked the toddler a little. "Oh yeah get ready because tonight is going to be a long night and we are in for a rough week," Evie told Uma who just immediately got up and began to pack a bag.
"In that case I'm staying with Harry and Gil for the next week!" Uma screamed out and Evie just shook her head. "Uma you can't! Boys and girls can't sleep in the same dorm that's the rules and you know it!" Evie told Uma who just rolled her eyes.
"And who is going to tell on me," Uma asked Evie, challenging her. "I will! I'll go straight to Fairy Godmother!" Evie told Uma who just gasped as she looked at Evie. "Oh you wouldn't dare princess!" Uma told Evie sternly and Evie just placed Mal down as she stood up tall.
"Oh I would!" Evie told Uma and Uma just groaned realizing that Evie had won as Uma already had gotten in trouble after the aquarium informed the school about what happened and Fairy Godmother knew it was her. Uma couldn't afford another mark on her record.
"Ugh fine you win!" Uma screamed out as she angrily sat down on her bed and as soon as Uma laid back to relax a little the toddler started screaming again. "Oh this is going to be torture!" Uma screamed out as Evie just quickly picked up the sobbing toddler again.
