Puppy is teething. Take yourself to the pet shop and get lots of puppy friendly chew toys, and teach him that these are expectable to chew and play with. When he nibbles on you, give him a stern 'NO' and simply walk away, and ignore him. After a few minutes, return to him and re- introduce a chew toy. Good luck!
