Her First Tooth...

Olivia has her first tooth! We had gone to Brick Oven for dinner tonight while the guys went to the Priesthood session of Conference. Olivia was sucking on Madison's hand and Maddie said, "Does she have a tooth?" At first I said no, but Maddie said, "Well, I think she does 'cause there is something sharp in there." Sure enough, a little tooth has made its way through her gums. That explains her fussiness for the past two nights! I'd been feeling her gums, expecting a tooth sometime soon because of all her drooling lately. But, there weren't any signs that one was actually coming in so I originally thought that maybe it was her reacting to her vaccinations a day or two later than usual. Between growth spurts, ear infections, and new teeth--- I can't figure out what might be causing her discomfort and fussiness.

It's hard to see her little tooth, but it is there. You can see a tiny little white dot on the left side of her gums (or on her right side). Oh, she's getting so big. And it all happens so fast! This is the end of those cute toothless smiles!

Hopefully she doesn't bite...EEK!! Ellie didn't get teeth until she was 10 1/2 months old...I was so worried about her losing the "toothless grin", but I still think she is cute!! Olivia will have cute, little teeth too...

wow, teeth so soon? congrats! John's didn't push thru until almost 7 months. We started him on solids at 6 and I was so glad I waited that long (he LOVES food)! Hope she doesn't bite...

Thanks for leaving the comment on my blog. Olivia is so cute. I love chubby babies. Both my boys got their bottom teeth at 4 months and by 8 months they had 8 teeth. Does Melissa have a blog? If not tell her to start one!!

I can't believe that she has already got a tooth!! Macy was almost 11 months before she got her first tooth and between then and now (2 1/2 months) she has 8!! I can't believe how fast they grow up.
