Ya see in the jaw?

But for the rest i really like the modelling and over a couple of days its my birthday so i can download lots of tutorials here like the ninja warrior user added image

Looks like u forgot to select some vertex. Just make another jaw for it and don't forget the vertex. Anyway, rigging is basically that, but u need many more things to animate a model correctlyuser added image.
