Teeth!

Yesterday, I noticed that you were a little more manic about needing something, ANYTHING in your mouth. So, for the thirty-fifth and a half time, I felt your gums to see if there was anything there. To my surprise, there's a tiny point poking through on your bottom right side! You started to get your first tooth the day before Daddy's 29th birthday. Time to break out the teethers!
By the way, the day AFTER Daddy's birthday, on July 11th, I was changing your diaper in the church nursery, and you said, "Dadada." Daddy couldn't believe you finally said it after saying, "Mamama," for about two weeks! He was so excited because he had been saying, "DaDA," to you for weeks trying to get you to say it. You gave him a good birthday present, even though it was a day late. :-)
