Teeth!

Yes, finally. At almost 10 months, Patrick's two lower front teeth are starting to poke through. I have heard that babies who teeth late have healthier teeth. Or is that something nervous mothers tell each other? Oh, and he has started to self-feed with finger foods. But why oh why won't he hold a bottle and give me a break? I know, I should just be glad he is finally taking bottles. Don't have pics of the teeth yet (see below).

Paige is teething! 3 1/2 months. Crazy drooling chewing baby. She gave Grandma a hickey on her arm!

Wow. Some babies do teeth early, like around 4 months. But, our ped said that the drool at that stage is usually about oral development in that it gets them ready breaking down and swallowing solids.

teething...gosh, I hardly remember it. Malcolm graduated from 8th grade today! The one thing I do recall is terrible diaper rash right before each tooth came through--woo hoo, a double dose of cranky! Enjoy each day, they are all fabulous and fleeting!
