Teething?

We asked Charly's nurse last Friday if she could be teething already because she drools all the time and she chews on anything she can get her lips on: hair, shoulders, blankets, her daddy's nose! You name it, she chews it. Her favorite chew toy so far . . . her own fingers. She loves to shove as many fingers as possible into her mouth!

When we told Charly's nurse this she laughed at us and gave us that look all eager first time parents probably get from their doctor's office at one point or another. She told us that the teething process takes time and Charly's a little early from that happening at just 4 months. She said babies drool and chew on things LONG before teeth ever come in.

So imagine our surprise when we get home and find two hard, defined white slits, front and center, in Charly's bottom gum. This girl is growing up too darn fast!
