On Saturday we discovered that Elliot had the corner of a tooth peeking through! How exciting, a bit earlier than most babies, but that does tend to be Elliot's style. He didn't seem to exhibit any of the traditional teething signs, other than excessive drooling and constant chomping on things. He didn't seem cranky or feverish or in pain. He didn't even have little swollen bumps on his gums from the tooth pressing up. Just a corner of a tooth sticking out.
So we ooooh'd and ahhhhhh'd over his tooth all day Saturday and again Sunday morning. But by Sunday afternoon, it was gone! It must have still had a skim of skin over it, and now it's popped back down in his gums for a bit longer. Maybe his gums swelled up a bit? But cool, huh! This means it won't be long now and he'll have a tooth (or 2) in that big beautiful smile of his!
