Baby's Got a Tooth!

I was shocked this morning when I had my fingers in Baby Miss's mouth (to retrieve the latest tidbit that she'd just picked up off the floor and shoved in there) and ran across the unmistakable sharp ridge of an emerging tooth. In a state of utter protest, I managed to briefly get her mouth open enough to sneak a peek and sure enough, there it was - a gleaming white speck peeking up through her pink gums. What a jewel - her lower, front, right tooth! Both the Girl and Little Sister were nearly 16 months before they got their first tooth and they didn't get theirs in typical fashion, they started with their upper front teeth. Already imagining how cute her formerly toothless grin will be once that little tooth starts moving up.
