Teefus

Poor baby Joe...

With 8 chompers already in his mouth, his molars begin their descent (how dramatic can one make a child breaking teeth in sound?).  I'd been wondering why he's been such a chump lately.  Of course, being my first kid, I'm just thinking he's ramping up for his 2's... It's got to happen some time, right?
The thing is, it's such a subtle chumpity; it's not like he's nearly as bad as what I've seen.  Just a bit moody, bording on agressive, getting forceful to get at things he knows he's not supposed to; stuff like that.  Poor thing; he'd even been trying to get at where the pain was, but I interpreted it as him about to get an ear infection.  But then it got bad enough that he's squirming around with his face stuffed in pillows (or worse - our chests), biting away.
