a tooth! a tooth!
first suspected around lunchtime at Casa del Torbenspang, when The Delightful Nanna(tm) noticed a tiny scraping sound as she gave the Dinghy a sip of water from her glass.
further audio confirmation was received shortly afterwards upon arrival at home, using a melamine cup.
confirmed sighting at approx 3:25pm Australian Eastern Daylight Savings Time. much cooing and appreciation followed from all, with the exception of the Dinghy, who just wanted his custard and fruit, dammit.
a certain melancholy has followed, on reflection (previously noted in diary) of how unbelievably cute toothless gums* are.
current suspicions, based on evidence of bulging tooth buds, are that three other teeth may well surface in relatively quick succession.
and here's another image, because posts with images are always good. this cunning tooth chart is nice, isn't it? it's something I might even bother to fill in, which would be nice, seeing as I have a hankering to do a Baby's First sort of thing one day. has anyone else actually been together enough to do that?
btw, that image at the top is of a Limoges tooth capsule. kinda cute, kinda a couple of hundred dollars. never mind little Dinghy, until you're old enough to browse the archives, you'll never know what you missed out on...
* on babies only. seriously.

I remember from Charlie that grins with a toothie or two are just as heart melting.
Gemma is biting, but no teeth yet thank goodness. She bites for effect, I can tell that she is smiling as I yelp. Little bugger.
awww, I can just see a little toothie Charlie :) cool... I will look forward to the little pearlies popping up. well, they're inevitable, so I'd better get used to it. heh.
do you mean biting whilst feeding? little bugger indeed!
update: second tooth heard at morning tea up at Maison Eliza, and sited at 4:10pm. toothy grin here we come!
Fangs for the mammories...
you should be ashamed of yourself finn!
Sorry...
...not...
eheh.
right and left upper toothiepegs sited at approx 12:55pm and 1:25pm respectively. no aural confirmation before the visuals this time... well, except for the sounds of baby and parental discomfort ;)
is he trying to set a new land speed record or something?
hooray for many, many toothie pegs!
and Min is right, it *is* kinda cute :)
We have a third tooth. Thank God it's finally through!
That is all.
