Houston, we have a .... tooth?

Go figure. We are watching for red gums, swollen gums, a grouchy child....Not really happening here. For the last day, Henry's been a little out of sorts, but no typical signs. Today, I gave him one of those freezable caterpillars that babies chew when they are teething, and he was happy. I thought, "Good! Maybe he's starting to teethe." He took it out of his mouth and I noticed a tiny bit of blood--I think Henry's cutting his first tooth! :) Unless he was able to find something to cut his gums in the same way a tooth would, I think we'll being seeing at least one pearly white sometime soon!

Photo on the way, if we can manage to get one!

Toothwatch Update:

We spent last weekend in St. Petersburg and this weekend touring around Moscow, and now it looks like instead of one tooth, Henry is cutting both of his lower middle teeth! Not full teeth yet, but edges like razor--yeow!

At any rate, he is doing well. He's starting to sleep better and isn't fussy as much. Sniff, he's growing up so fast.... :S

That's about it from here. We'll post some tourist stuff in a bit, but right now, Henry's dental developments are our top story!

Still working on the photos... :)
