Decker's First Tooth

There is no tooth fairy for the getting of teeth so, instead, Decker welcomed his first tooth with an all-night party.  Well, maybe no party was involved, just the all-nighter.

At 4 1/2 months, Dex had a sharp little tooth break through and  it is now getting bigger every day.  We knew it was coming by the drool soaked shirts and the attempt at the full fist in his mouth.  I had said he was teething around 3 months but was met with crazy eyes because "he is too young to be teething."
Apparently, he is not. Because it's there.  And, more are coming.  And, though he was pleasant and happy, if not wet around the collar, during the day, the night before the tooth appeared he had trouble sleeping and spent a better part of the night crying and wanting to be held.

With a face like this who wouldn't oblige to his cries?
