Tasty fingers

Pete is solidly in the teething stage now. We had our doubts about it before, though the funny sharp ridge was just a figment of our imaginations. But he's been drooling and chomping on anything within reach... and his reach and grip are better, so watch out!

Although he'll bite on anything room temperature or warmer (no cooled teething rings for him!), he does have a tendency to chomp on his fingers at just about any time. They are his ride-in-the-carseat, relax-in-the-stroller, sleep-in-the-crib, enjoy-the-playmat, chill-in-our-laps teething toy of choice. Which is fine. Until we have to wean him from his naturally-attached binkies.

Debbie sucked her thumb until she was in the 5th grade. How long do you think it'll take Pete?
