For at least the last 2 months, James has been chewing on anything he can get hold of...mostly his fingers. And he drools like anything. So, of course I expected that any day I would be seeing the first tooth pop through. I regularly checked his gums for the first signs of a new tooth. Always the same...nothing.
The last few weeks James has been whining and crying more often and will not go to sleep without a good cry first. I continued to check his gums...nothing.
Yesterday (Sunday) I was on the airplane and the lady sitting next to me asked, does he have any teeth yet? "No," I started to reply and at the same time was looking into his mouth. And there it was, his first tooth, bottom left. Just barely poking through his gums.
What a fun milestone!

And those dumb teeth threaten for weeks before ever justifying their whiny, drooly teething behavior!
James Dracula Garner? That is a fun milesone. Tanner was 14mos. before his first tooth!
That is the best. I just love little James. Congrats on the new tooth.
