Baby Breaks Family Record



Elliotte Butikofer of Anchorage. AK, at the age of 2 months, 2 weeks, and three days old cut her first tooth on Friday, January 19, 2008 . She blasted the former family record, held by sister Rebecca Jane, by 1 month, 1 week, and one day. The old record was achieved on the day her family moved into Aggie Village, located on the campus of Utah State University. It was ironically on this date, August 27, 2003, that her 18 month old sister Sarah lost her first tooth by kissing the pavement in a nearby parking lot.

When asked about her daughter's accomplishment, mother Linsie Butikofer only commented, "I only wish potty training were this fast!"


Former record holder Rebecca Jane sucks her finger to sooth her swollen gums.

Wow, Elliotte! Good job getting your first tooth at two months. Your posts are so funny, Linsie. I'm glad that you put older pictures on as well. Do you scan them, or did you have digital back then?

They are scanned. I just realized yesterday that I wasn't scanning very high resolution and the quality was suffering. So hopefully they will look better from now on!
