Houston, we have a tooth!

Yippeee!!! Ava's first tooth finally broke the skin today! Finally! I knew she was getting really close before the toe incident, but I guess that took some focus away from her hurting gums for a bit. I haven't noticed her putting her hands in her mouth a lot lately, or doing anything else too unusual, until today. She had some serious licking and tongue movements, so I felt the gums...and there was the tiniest indication of a tooth, a few little prickles on the gums. So we broke out into song & dance for a good half hour and called the grandparents. Awww...the little things!

Yea! the first tooth is so exciting! It is somehow nice to have confirmation that all that fussing and chewing was worth it...
