New Exercise

This is all the rage around our house right now.  Lay flat on your stomach, pull your knees up and stick your butt way up in the air.  Now, rock your butt to one side and pull your opposite knee up to your stomach.  Push off on that knee and slowly slide forward on your face.

Elijah has started creeping in earnest, and this is his chosen method.  I have become paranoid that he's going to scoot off the blanket and give himself rug burn on his little face.  I'm hoping it won't be too long before he starts picking his head up and crawling.  For some reason the sliding on his face has me really concerned.

I tried uploading a video of it, but the computer isn't letting me.

We have...a tooth!

And I honestly didn't even know it.  Mom and I were out with him today, and she put her finger in his mouth for him to chew on and she said, "He has a tooth!"  I couldn't believe it.  I felt around on his gum and felt a hard little ridge along the bottom.  Definitely a tooth.

 I even asked the pediatrician at his six-month appointment yesterday about teeth and he basically said when they come, they come.

He's been a little fussier lately, but not terrible.  He didn't get bad diaper rash, he hasn't had a fever that I've noticed.  He's just kind of been Elijah, but a little sleepier.  Maybe that was the clue.

UPDATE:  I spoke too soon.  The last couple days have not been too fun.  Poor little guy isn't feeling well and wants to be held all day.  I've been trying to distract him with things like introducing juice and putting apple sauce in his cereal, but it's not working too well.  He's just not feeling well.
