After much ado, Carter's first little tooth finally peeked through today. Boy are we glad! I've been expecting it for months because of all the slobbering (he literally soaks through 3 or 4 vinyl-backed bibs every day!), and now it's here. Now he's one step closer to that cheeseburger he's been eyeing!
I guess now he'll only have to wish for the other three front teeth for Christmas this year!
It's amazing how those little teeth pop in. I checked his gums just this morning and no tooth, so he must've done a heap of chewing today for it to break through. Dr. Baldwin predicted on Friday that he would have two teeth in 3 or 4 days...guess she knows her stuff, huh? (Well, her prediction is half true so far.)
Poor little guy...he's had the earache, a flu shot and apparently sore gums since last week. Maybe now that we've got him some meds and a new tooth to try out he'll start feeling more like himself. And Mommy's hoping he gets some sleep tonight...
