All he wanted for Christmas...

In August, when my 7 year old nephew Ben first met Jamey, he made the proclamation that Jamey couldn't talk yet because he didn't have any teeth. At the time, we grown-ups, laughed heartily at the comment. Then, on December 26th, while redeeming a gift card at Old Navy, Glenn informed me that he could feel the first of Jamey's teeth popping through. Lo and behold, a few days later, another tooth popped through. Thus, Jamey is now nursing two teeth.

Before the teeth appeared, Jamey was gooing every now and again. And yet, as posted in my previous entry, when we spent time in Emerald Isle, Jamey opened his mouth a little more to talk and show off his teeth. He babbles now quite a bit and lets you know how he is feeling.

On top of that, he is on the verge of sitting up. He can, in fact, balance on his own, but as soon as he reaches for a toy or his foot, he topples over. All in time.....
