Over the weekend Jimmy lost his first tooth. I don't think it was really ready to come out on it's own but Jim helped it along a little bit. Jimmy was sucking on his shirt and Jim told him to take it out of his mouth but he didn't listen so Jim gave it a tug to get the shirt out of his mouth. Well, the tooth came loose after that and by the end of the day it had fallen out on it's own. Jim felt terrible about it but Jimmy was really excited despite the fact the the tooth wasn't really ready to come out yet. He couldn't wait to tell his teacher at school because they get a special sticker every time they lose a tooth. There is just something about loosing those baby teeth that makes little boys feel like really big boys! Here he is with his beaming, toothless smile!

Hooray for lost teeth! I love that little smile. Really, I am surprised that Jim felt badly. . . he would have knocked all my teeth out given the chance. I guess that just shows he is growing up :)
I have a "lost tooth book" I am sending to Jimmy so watch for it in the mail.
Losing teeth is a HUGE deal in first grade (and it is disgusting).
good for jimmy! jonny freaks out about it! his second tooth is barely held in there and the new tooth is halfway up, but he won't let me pull it out! it's driving me crazy! maybe i'll ask him to suck on his shirt....
