Charlie's first... teeth
Barry's pov
We were all hanging out at STAR Labs, and , by hanging out I mean fussing over my baby girl who was feverish and crying. I was not a fan of her in that state, no one liked to see my precious angel put Niagara Falls to shame. I was trying to soothe her after giving her some Tylenol; bouncing her on my hip, singing You Are My Sunshine, a song that generally soothed her. Not today.
Finally, Caitlin spoke over my baby's cries "Check her gums for teething."
I complied, and when I felt something poking through her gums, she bit down on my finger. HARD. Pain shot up my now bleeding finger as I managed to retrieve it before Charlie tasted or smelled the blood, which would upset her even more. "Yup. She's a teething, cranky baby. And I'm no dentist, but I'm guessing it was a incisor."
Once Cait decided I didn't need stitches, I just applied pressure to the wound until the bleeding stopped and my finger healed completely. Iris laughed " That took two minutes. Gotta love the perks of your speed, Babe."
I kissed her and kissed Charlie's cheek " I love my girls more."
I was about to get a teething ring before my daughter decided to find one on her own; promptly jamming my curled hand into her mouth; slobbering all over it. I smiled " She's never going to stop amazing me or making me melt."
Now that she was situated, medicated and found something to soothe her pain, we spent the rest of the day playing with her and cuddling her. I'm so glad she came into my life.
