This picture pretty much sums up his attitude over the past few days. Irritable and needy.  

Jaden can now sit up on his own!  When I went to pick him up from daycare today, he was sitting in front of a play center, laughing at his image in the play mirror.  He seems to be proud of himself now that he has a different view of the world.  He gave me a big grin and behold, his first tooth is now noticeable!

Last night wasn't so bad but the previous two nights were just awful.   He woke up pretty much every hour howling in pain.  It appears that he has a short reprieve and then it will happen all over again until his second tooth shows itself.  I'll let you know when that happens...
