Where'd You Get That?!

Hailey surprised me the other day as we were laughing and playing around.  She smiled really big and pulled back her tongue (which is rare, since she seems to always have it hanging out of her mouth).  She's had two teeth buds since she was 8 weeks old. The first tooth popped through around 4 months and the second started to show a month after that.  Neither have made a full appearance yet though.  So when I looked in her mouth, I was absolutely astonished to see a third tooth on its way up, on the bottom!  I had always thought babies get their bottom two teeth, then a few months later, they'll get the top two and then later the sides start filling in.  Three teeth on the bottom just blew my mind.  How could this happen...?




We don't have very many baby pictures of Justin because his mom has them with her in New Mexico.  It has been hard to compare Hailey to what he looked like when he was little.  Just a few days ago we were cleaning house getting ready for our garage sale and Justin came across two of his baby pictures that were in his senior yearbook.  One is an adorable bath time picture that we can really see a resemblance to Hailey.  Upon closer inspection, what did I see...?

 THREE BOTTOM TEETH!!!  
It must be a genetic thing from his side of the family.  
That explains a lot.
