If your wife ever asks for proof as to why you should have the latest digital camera then here it is. While this photo may look like a spoonful of vomit being passed between the lips of my unsuspecting little boy, Henry, it actually contains a whole lot more.

We first noticed Henry’s first tooth when feeding him – he opens his little mouth so wide for those first few spoonfuls that you can almost see directly into his stomach. But having any detailed examination of the tooth proved impossible, as he won’t allow anything else in that mouth apart from foul mixtures of bizarre vegetables.

And so here is the cropped version of the photo that allowed us a detailed look at our little man’s first little tooth. You can clearly see the little white stub poking out of his gum, whilst mashed up pig swill clings to the underside of his lip. How cute is that?!
