Walking Before Teeth
Baby James is approaching his birthday - he'll be 1! This morning he was a baby, but around 4:00 p.m., he became a toddler. I'm not sure what triggered the "I don't need your finger to walk, mom" response, but he completely eschewed my help and navigated all throughout the house this afternoon several times. Not too many falls.
So, wow. He's been doing a BIT of walking on his own - mostly along furniture or very short distances, but today it was WALKING. It's more of a shuffle, I guess. He looks like an extra from Shaun of the Dead, and he supplies his own eerily similar sound effects.
But, as the title notes, no teeth for the urchin. It's become a point of drama in our household. James is a BIG baby - 9 lbs at birth and I'm guessing 26 or 27 pounds now. He's taller than the kitchen table (which he often forgets and tries to stand up under) and eats small buildings for his morning snack. But they have to be pureed first because the stinker has no teeth.
I've been thinking about putting together a tooth pool with the winner receiving...the baby? No, I will figure something out. But someone needs to predict when James will get teeth.
