Teething?!

I'm pretty sure Ryder is starting to teethe. Just this past week or so he has been WAY more cranky and he is drooling a TON (we finally broke out the bib). He is chomping on anything he can get in his mouth, mostly his fingers. When you have to take his fingers away from his mouth for any reason, he usually freaks out and immediately stuffs them back in and chomps on them. His gums feel a bit swollen but i think the actual tooth still has a while to go before it pops out. Another thing that has not been fun is he is starting to wake up during the night again... He has been sleeping through the night consistently for about a month now, but i guess he is uncomfortable enough that it's waking him up. Poor kid! Ithought he was too young to start teething, but both my nieces got their first tooth at 4 months, so i guess you never know.
Other than that life is pretty good. Kevin started school up at the University of Utah. He's taking a full load! He had to quit his job because they wouldn't work around his school schedule. So he's looking for something part time. Hopefully he can find something soon, we'll see. We are blessing Ryder this Sunday. I'm excited! He has a cute little blessing outfit which he HATES, haha! So, i just hope he doesn't scream the whole time he's in it!
Lots of chomping on fingers lately

This is what he does when you take his fingers out of his mouth
From this face, I guess Mommy only brings a little comfort!
