Molar!

Sorry, no chemistry this time...

The first of RC's one year molars has FINALLY cut through. Her poor gums have been swollen and working on these for months! As of this afternoon, we saw 2-3 points of exit on the lower right molar. I think we first felt it a couple of days ago.

(She's been really good about making it easy for us to see them. At this point, we can ask to see her teeth and we're greeted with an open-mouthed "Aaaaaahhhhh". Of course, one drawback to this is that when she's done, we have to respect it. She was nice enough to let us look; we have to be nice enough to get out of the way when she gets tired.)

We can see the lower left and feel the texture through the gum. We can also see the beginnings of white on the two upper molars. We're hoping they're not too far behind.

Then we have canines and 2 years and then the long wait for all of 'em to fall out. Seems almost anti-climactic that way. Oh well, at least we might be done with getting new teeth before she starts losing them.
