First Tooth



While making Easter treats, in a previous post, Carl double knotted a piece of dental floss to Alex's tooth for the second time this week. Let me be clear--this tooth has been loose since Christmas. Its been THIS loose for the last week. Alex, who has a very low tolerance of pain cried any time anyone got close to his mouth. I thought it would be a good idea to keep the floss long and accidentally step on it while Alex was running around, but alas the floss was too short. Instead Grant "accidentally" pulled on the string and it popped right out. It didn't hurt a bit.

I can't believe he is old enought already to be losing teeth!

low tolerance for pain, huh? he does realize that all of his teeth will be coming out, right?

That is SO Brookynn's way and she is 9 now! We like to call her snaggle tooth for months. Maybe we could convice her on the floss trick.
