Last week I felt Caedmon's first tooth coming in. It was barely breaking through and we haven't hardly been able to see it, much less document the event in pictures. A couple days ago, I felt a second tooth coming in. I realized that when he chews on rings, etc, I get a good glimpse...so here we go. Finally, a picture of this milestone (there are 2 little teeth poking through on the bottom, I promise; you may need to click on the pic to enlarge it for a better view).Also, an update on his eating (for those of you who care)...at my last mention of it, Caedmon wasn't too fond of the solid food experience. Since then, he's definitely catching on and deciding food is yummy. He'll eat rice cereal if I mix it with a little fruit...So far, he's had (in this order) rice cereal, banana, sweet potatoes, peaches, and butternut squash. He's still not a big fan of bananas by themselves. I think it was the sweet potatoes that turned him onto the solid food experience. He loves them(and everything since then, too)!! By the way...my 2 cents worth...I've found that most people (including most "experts") have a very strict opinion on whether to introduce fruits or veggies first. Why does it have to be one or the other? Why couldn't I introduce one of one and then one of the other and mix it up a little instead of doing all fruits or all veggies first? After our pediatrician (whom I love) said there wasn't anything wrong with that idea (and that, in fact, it made a lot of sense)...we went for it. And I feel like Caedmon's diet is much better because of it. So, there you go...

I like his little chompers! And yea for liking food now. Madeline wasn't too fond of bananas at first either. But, that is the main fruit she eats now. We get a lot of bananas mixed with other things. Beware of the diapers if you give him real mashed up bananas. It can be a little startling. At least it was for us. :)
I agree with you on the food thing. We did that with our kids, it seemed more important to do the yellow/orange fruits and veggies first before introducing the other color schemes. And sweet potatoes was a winner with them all as well. I love his new little teeth, so cute!
