Teeth

Yesterday, we were riding home from the gym (therapy) and our 6 and a half-year-old announced, "I have a wiggler!" He's been waiting years for this to happen and was so excited.

Before we even got home (less than 10 minutes) he was handing the tooth up to me, so it must have been quite wiggly by the time he even discovered it.

We got in the door, I called Rick, took a shower, then he came into our room handing me yet another tooth! This was probably less than half an hour after he lost the first one. This one was bloody and had obviously been more forcefully pulled, but still! He had just mentioned it was slightly wiggly when the other one came out. I never even got to feel or see any wiggles or take a first lost tooth picture.

Little Bear losses first two teeth within half an hour!

He called Daddy back and we teased J-Bear (well, half serious) that he couldn't pull any more teeth yesterday or he would need dentures before Daddy even got home from work.

He was fine with that limitation as long as the tooth fairy knew to bring him double gifts last night. ;)

I'm so glad he was back home for this momentous occasion.
