Two in, three out

We have had an interesting week in terms of teeth. Gavin now has two bottom teeth. The emergence of his teeth have made me more comfortable offering him little pieces of food to eat on his own. So far it has just been banana rolled in ground flax seed, but we'll expand our horizons soon. Here he is going at it, with some help from his sister, of course:




In other dental news, Rosie managed to pierce her upper lip with her lower canine. The hole couldn't heal becauses her tooth kept sliding into it and it became an infected mess. So, out came the tooth, along with two additional top teeth that were poised to cause problems as they seemed to be migrating toward the back of her throat. Shane asked the dentist to save the canine tooth. I kept my thumb in the pic to add perspective. It's huge! (the tooth, not my thumb) Gross. Poor Rosie. Poor pocketbook.
