Teeth!!!!!!

So, let's talk teething....no one ever talks to you about teething when you are pregnant or if they do all they say is something like 'oh, it sucks, it's really awful'. No one really tells you the truth though! No one says to you that teething can start so early and you can not have teeth for MONTHS! Well...we found this out all on our own. It seems that Jack started teething when we were on vacation in FL back in September...yep, that's right, at the ripe old age of 3 months! He was putting everything he could figure out how to in his mouth, drooling like a monster and all the fun teething stuff. SO fun I though, he'll have teeth early...silly me!! This continued for months, not to mention the crappy sleep, gross poops (sorry TMI) and just crankiness. THEN...the big guy int he sky must have felt a little pity for us and out popped a tooth, then a second and before we knew it he turned 9 months old and had 4 teeth...all in the matter of 2.5 weeks.
Then comes looking for the teeth. He can be smiling away and once my hands come anywhere near his mouth he closes up and you have to be really crafty to get him to open back up and be able to feel around for teeth. Same goes with taking pictures. You can see the picture above he still wanted nothing to do with teeth pictures but of course momma finds ways around that and got him to smile enough for the picture to the left. YAY for teeth :o)

Ok, one more picture because he is too cute not to show off and so are his little teeth :o) (oh, and if you click on the picture it will come up bigger and if you do that, don't mind the boogie in his nose, haha)
