Cutting his first tooth

Joshua is cutting his first tooth!! how exciting is that?? He has been drooling like crazy and sticking things in his mouth all the time. He's always seemed to be a drooler, but lately it has been a whole lot more drooling than normal. He's been a little fussy, and he's had a runny nose; which I thought were just remnants from his flu last week. Now, I'm beginning to think that some of the fussiness and runny nose is attributed to his tooth coming in. Today, as he sat down playing with toys and sticking just about anything in his mouth I decided to feel his gums and try to take a peek. I feel something, but it's really tiny so I had to look closely! Yep, he's got a bottom tooth coming in!! Kateli didn't cut her first tooth until about 2 days before she turned 9 months. I remember we were coming home from the gym, when she grinned at me and I saw that little tooth for the first time! Joshua is just getting them a lot earlier, which is surprising--but I guess no kid is the same right!??
