Tooth!

While cleaning John up from his yummy dinner of sweet potatoes, pears, and a few banana and whole wheat puffs I saw what I thought was a chunk of food in the front of his bottom jaw. It turned out to be his first tooth! It is just barely through, but it is sharp.
Why are baby teeth so sharp? Don't they feel any compassion for the women who are breastfeeding? I am living in fear of the first big bite and hoping that everything on me will remain intact!
While it is exciting to have this new addition I am sad that my babies are growing up so fast! They are already 8 months old and I feel like they were just born!
