Two year molars.
All four at the same time.

Oh honey. Been there, done that. In fact, my kid got 8 teeth at once long ago. It was the most horrific 2 weeks of my parenting life. BUT, then you get it over with all at once and think of the chomping she will be able to do after!
I felt for you when I read this the other day. It didn't once occur to me that HEY - Nate's only 3 days younger, our time is coming. Oblivious! Until last night when I looked in his mouth at bath time and saw two new molars poking and half-way through. Then I said "well, No SH!T. No wonder he's been a beast for the past 6 days and won't give up the paci for anything!" I had no idea. What a rookie mistake.

Alice came to a fork in the road.
"Which road do I take?" she asked.
"Where do you want to go?" responded the Cheshire cat.
"I don't know," Alice answered.
"Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."
