Finally, The Tooth Fairy is Coming Tonight!

Alex had a loose tooth for sooo long, I figured the Tooth Fairy was coming months ago. We've tried a few times over the last 2 weeks to pull it but it was still too attatched. The permanent tooth is 25% in and still hadn't pushed it out. In the mean time, the tooth beside it has been loose, but not much. Well, today Alex was helping Jody wash the car and squirted Jody with the hose. So Jody threw a wet rag at him & his tooth went missing. Of course it wasn't the long overdue loose tooth, it was the other one. Can you believe that? Anyway, like I said, the tooth went missing, so we looked in the driveway & the grass, and no tooth. We gave up on it after a while. Alex said that he may have swallowed it. Do you know of any kids swallowing teeth when they came out? After hearing about the tooth fairy coming tonight, he decided to let us pull the other one. So he will have 1 tooth under the pillow, but still be rewarded for 2 teeth. I took a few pictures and only one really turned out. You can definately see the gap for the one tooth, but the other gap is already 25% filled, so it is hard to get the full affect in a picture.

Now Emily is eager to start loosing teeth. Stay tuned for her toothless post. We'll see if I can beat this blog on how many times I can use the words tooth, toothless or teeth. (19 times with the 1 in the title)
