All he wants for Christmas?

Callum now has two teeth!  We saw the beginning of tooth #1 (lower right central incisor) on November 30 and it was finally big enough that I attempted to get a picture of it today.
Sometime after taking this picture (in all its blurry glory), I realized that the second tooth had just poked through!  So lower left central incisor is here too.  And as if I didn't believe it by seeing, I've been bit three times today.  The second time, I even saw it coming.  When nursing, he has to have his tongue kind of sticking out.  Well, I saw him suck his tongue back into his mouth and went, uh oh.  Yep.  CHOW.  And this little guy doesn't follow the usual behavior.  Tonight he bit and I smacked his mouth and gave him a stern no.  Did he burst into tears and beg my forgiveness?  No.  He stared into my eyes as if he was contemplating this whole thing for a good five seconds....and then smiled.  doh.  What am I going to do with this guy?  He's already been on a nursing strike and now biting?  If I weren't so stubborn, I'd wean him.  But I am.  :)
Anyway!  Two teeth!  Yayyyyy Callum!
