Our Toothless Boy!!

We have FINALLY lost our first teeth in our house. Last week we noticed that Andrew had become a "shark" and his adult tooth had popped up behind his baby tooth. We headed to the dentist on Monday and through an x-ray they saw that the tooth next to it was also about to pop up. Thankfully we have an amazing dentist who has all kinds of tricks up her sleeve. She was wanting to pull two of his bottom baby teeth so she went through the process with him and he was fine. Our amazing BRAVE boy was wonderful once again...not a tear was shed or any type of freak out was had. The dentist explained how he had magic rubber bands in his teeth and he could hear them pop as she wiggled the tooth with her pliers. He thought this was great and explained it to everyone afterwards. He even said that one of his teeth had a spring in it and it went "POP" when she pulled it out. He got a cool blow up guitar as a prize and then got to relax the rest of the day at home. The tooth fairy made her first visit that night. She wrote Andrew a note and let him keep his teeth and she brought him $2.00. Andrew was mainly excited that he got to keep his teeth, he really wanted them to show people. The tooth loosing phase has begun in our house...yipee for toothless grins!!!
