A Fairy Tale

So Jett has had two wiggly teeth on the bottom for a while now and as they have gotten more wiggly, he became more and more aware that something was going on... We often talked about his wiggly teeth and when they would be ready to come out and he would always say, "It's not ready today. Maybe later." Well, last night at Nana/Papa's house, I was worried of him swallowing his tooth during dinner so I had Daddy "look" at his tooth and next thing we know he spat it out of his mouth!! Jett's first tooth out!


As he spat it out of his mouth, his expression was so funny because he wasn't quite sure what had happened. He was pretty excited once he discovered he was missing a tooth! The rest of the evening was filled with questions and comments like,
"Why does it feel weird when I don't have a tooth in my mouth?"
"Touch my tooth! It feels different!"
He's very happy with his window.


I took these pictures last night as we tucked him in with his tooth safe under his pillow. In the morning he happily discovered that the tooth fairy had left him 4 quarters and a dum-dum! What a lucky kid!

So as he came in to show me his prize this morning, I decided to check out his other wiggly tooth and to my amazement, it had gotten very loose overnight! We told Dad who tried to pry it out, but with big fingers, it wasn't too easy. So Mom got a grip and... TADA!....Another missing tooth!! The tooth fairy will come again tonight and he can hardly wait!


What a window! It's so cute to see it when he's talking!





And an update on Tucker... He got his stitches out last Friday and he looks great! You can't even tell he used to have an owie there.
