Adventures in Teething

As babies grow up, teeth grow in.  Some babies are very obvious with their teething...some babies aren't.  My sweet pea turns out to be the latter.  As we prepped for a trip to Yankee Land, I discovered that AP had cut a tooth!

Whaaaaaa???

Aside from the drooling - something that has become a constant thing - I had NO clue that she was ready to cut a tooth, much less that it had popped out.  She was gnawing on the lid to her bottle and when she pulled it out of her mouth, I heard a strange sound.  Confused, I took the top away, stuck my finger in her mouth and was greeted with a drooly smile and a pokey tooth!  I'm glad she kept that thing away from certain body parts!

It took me a couple of days to get a decent shot.  By this time, we were hanging out in Pennsylvania with the family...


Now that we have one tooth and I fear another is coming.  Little did I know, these wet farts and early morning "presents" are also signs of teething; aside from the usual drooling, gnawing/chewing, fever, and fussiness.

She's really proud of that tooth. :o)
