Nathan lost his first tooth tonight! He was so dramatic about it. He has had two loose teeth for weeks, but he didn't really want them to come out. No amount of bribing or talking about the tooth fairy helped. Finally, we told him tonight that it had to come out. It was getting all discolored because we couldn't brush it well. I didn't want my baby walking around with gray/black teeth. Yuck! So, after he wiggled it for a long time, he sat on Dan's lap and Dan held his head, and I just reached in and pulled it. It was practically ready to fall out anyway, but you would have thought I was doing a root canal with no novacane from the way he screamed. He is so dramatic! Anyway, within a few minutes he was all calmed down, and actually seemed pleased that it was out. We called Grammy to tell her (she has a thing about teeth. She loves it when any of the grandkids have loose teeth) and then he sat with Daddy for a while. Friday, May 8, 2009
