First Tooth

Wednesday, when Cale was chewing on my hand, my knuckle felt that he was chewing harder than just baby gums. Thursday he wasn't interested in his chilled teething rings, but Friday he was. Guess what peeked through on Friday, undeniably present? Yep, Cale has his first tooth, his lower right incisor.

Yes, this is early for a first tooth. Then again, he's big for his age. Karston was 7 months old, and had his first teeth, when he weighed what Cale weighs now. Cale is even showing the classic first sign of readiness for food: he intently watches us eat. I expect he'll be an early water too. Maybe he'll give Karston lessons on How To Eat.
