Baby Chomper

Oliver's sixth tooth has officially arrived! It's on the top, next to his right tooth. He now has four up top and two on the bottom. Chomp, chomp.

These last two teeth that have appeared recently explain his weird new habit. He's been sticking his thumb in his mouth and kind of sucking it. He's never sucked his thumb before. Actually, that's a lie. He sucked his thumb a little when he was a couple months old. I thought it was weird that he'd suddenly picked up the habit.

I now see that he's rubbing his thumb against the new teeth and not actually sucking. He's doing it with the back of his fingers, too, and they're a little red. He's definitely noticing something new going on in his mouth.
