Omg! Christian has been drooling excessively since…shoot, since he was a month old. Everyone told us that it was because he was teething. I would check all the time, and it would feel hard, but it never seemed like there was anything coming up. And he never seemed really fussy (except when hungry or sleepy). SO imagine my surprise when my mom called and was like, “Hey, Tiffany, I forgot to tell you. Christian has teeth” Whaaaaaat? I put my finger in his mouth and pulled them out, squealing. OHMIGOSH, CHRISTIAAAAAN!!!! YOU HAVE TEETH!

I don’t know how I didn’t notice. Maybe because I was so used to nothing being there whenever I did check. But there they  are — two teeth poking through the gums at the bottom. You can’t see them yet, because they are just breaking through, but they are DEFINITELY there. Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! TEETH! 😀 My babies gonna be eating steak pretty soon. Lol! I’m excited, surprised, and wary all at the same time. I’m super excited because it’s such a huge milestone. I’m surprised because he’s only 4 months (though I know that it happens early for some babies). I’m wary because I don’t know what this is going to mean for nursing. But I am going to stick it out for as long as I possibly can. I’m really hoping to make it to the on year mark. Wish me luck! 🙂

Hey, I’m Tiffany! I’m a single mom to a teenage boy, living in Central Arkansas with our two cats: Berlioz, the belly-rub-loving shadow, and Zenitsu, our adorable little terror who keeps life interesting. I work from home, homeschool, and juggle about 47 mental tabs at once thanks to ADHD.

I started Single Mommy Warrior to talk honestly about life as a single mom. The good. The hard. The funny. The parts people usually gloss over. Parenting alone. Working from home. Dating. Healing. Trying again. Learning as I go.

Professionally, I’m a copywriter who helps women grow their businesses with honest, ethical, personality-driven copy. Personally, I’m a geeky, book-loving, anime-watching human who still believes dream houses should come with libraries and secret rooms.

This isn’t a “perfect mom” blog. It’s a real one. And you’re welcome here.
