First tooth

Vincent's first tooth started to show today! It is a bottom front tooth; just the edge is visible through his gum.

He started babbling a lot more last week, making sounds like "Baba" or "dado" and so on.

He also started puffs and mum-mums—his first foods that need chewing! He's been doing a great job. Yesterday, when he had picked up all the puffs on his tray, he said "All done"—at least, that's what Papa heard!

Cracking wise

Nonno post: Eddie was fiddling with a screw-type nut cracker when he noticed flies, or bugs as he calls them, buzzing around the house.  So he holds out the nut cracker invitingly and says, "Bugs, fly in here and I crack you."

When papa points out that the most difficult part of his project is to get the flies to obey the command, he turns to the one that must be obeyed and implores, "Mama!"
