Despite everyone claiming that every drool and gnaw was leading to teeth, we had managed to go 10 months without any baby teeth! Even Dr. Amy seemed a little surprised at their 9 month visit that neither C or G had a tooth. I really wasn't. My cousin Becky's children didn't get a tooth until 12-14 months, and Michael and I both teethed late. Supposedly,that stuff is genetic.
Anyway, when Gillian returned from her holiday weekend with her grandparents, I noticed a slit in her bottom gum with tiny tooth bumps poking through! We have a tooth! Several days later I noticed that her top gum was swollen and sore looking too, and, BINGO, we had tooth number two. Then I noticed the other top, front gum was looking like it was going to pop; but, no luck yet. Gillian really has done very well with teething. She's a little testy every once in a while, but in general has done very well. She will not, however, let us get a picture of her teeth.
What about Colin? Well, he says he will get a tooth when he darn well pleases, and not a moment sooner. (Really, his top gums are swollen and I would guess that we'll see a tooth in the next few weeks)
