Ethan turned 6 months old on November 29th, and the same day his first tooth poked through!! I can feel the bottom right tooth and it's just barely through the gum, but you can barely see it in the photo. Don't worry Aunt Val, we started brushing today too...well at least with a wet washcloth!
For some reason our children get their teeth very early. Ava got all four of her front teeth at once, and unfortunately at exactly 4 months old. Breastfeeding and teeth don't mix well, but we worked through it, and when she weaned at 10 1/2 months she had almost an entire mouthful. Ethan has only bit me a few time so far, but when I tell him sternly "NO" he smiles and thinks it's funny! I hope he decides that using his source of food as a teething toy is not the greatest idea!!
The biter biscuits are now a favorite. He thought these were the best thing since, well, Ava!
