The teeth have begun!

Well after seemingly months of drool, tender gums and night-time fussing, little J has 2 top front teeth! The pearly whites finally showed themselves a few days ago. After 3 nights of getting up and trying everything to sooth the poor little guy, I was definitely glad to see them. In a little while, our son's cute little grin will slowly start turning into that cheesy toothed smile - I LOVE IT! So with the new teeth, we have also noticed that he is not so interested in pureed baby food and now prefers little tastes of whatever mom or dad is having. Also, items on end tables, couches and chairs are no longer out of his reach, in fact they are an adventure awaiting (according to our son)! It is amazing to see his personality begin to come out and watch as he grows and learns. At least he is back to sleeping through the night again (which also means mom and dad get more sleep as well)! Yay!
