Teeth!

Yes, we have teeth! Just one day after Mike posted on Holden's possible separation anxiety, on May 20, two little bottom teeth buds popped through! Soo...perhaps it wasn't anxiety all along, but just a general "I'm so not in the mood to see other people right now, because, seriously. I'm in pain!" Or something like that.

In any case, Holden's been so much happier since these started coming in. Teething seems to give our little guy tummy troubles too, which leads to bad napping, cranky afternoons, etc etc. The moment also seemed to signify a kind of breakthrough in other ways as well. Just after the teeth popped through, he started pulling himself onto his hands and knees--a big step in the development towards crawling. He also seemed to grow over the course of that week, so maybe a growth spurt also had to do with his fussiness. Because he's now starting to wear some 9 months clothes. So many changes, so fast!

Once we can get a picture of those teeth, we'll post it.
