D has had this tooth dangling in his mouth for the past several weeks, and we had no idea when it was going to come out! Being that this was D's FIRST loose tooth, we had to tread waters carefully. We did our best to wiggle and twist, but it was stubborn. Finally, we resolved to just let it come out on its own. Two days ago, while eating a stale cookie before school, Daniel walked up to me in the kitchen while I had my back to him and said, "Mommy, I think that my tooth fell out!" He had teased me with this line before, so I wasn't going to be fooled. He told me again, and I did the obligatory glance over my shoulder to discover a bloody mouth! I ran to him and looked at what was in his hand! Indeed, my little man had lost his first tooth! He was so excited that he was shaking! He promptly told me that, "The tooth fairy is going to come tonight and I'm going to get money to buy my 'Spiderman web shooter' from the store!" Sorry kid, the Tooth Fairy isn't made of money! :) I love this toothless kid-- he sure is growing up!
Enjoy this super flattering shot of me and my three chins. :)
