JJ is missing something

JJ lost a tooth today. This would be are first upper front one. We have been waiting eight years to see one of our kids without a front tooth. It is pretty awesome.

JJ called me from school to tell me his tooth was hurting and that he needed to come home. I asked him what happened and he said it was loose. I being the mean mom that I am told him he could stay at school for that. If he lost it he could have the teacher put it in a bag for him.

It wasn't until he got home that he finally lost it. He had me try to pull it out but I couldn't handle it. YUCK! I hate that noise. It gives me the chills. He finally did it himself. Way to go JJ. I think he is pretty cool that he pulled it out himself.

Good job, JJ! I hate that noise too. And I hate to think about the taste of blood in their mouths - salty. Aaah!

It seems that once they loose their top front teeth it means they are really growing up! Congrats JJ on this milestone and way to wimp out Megan!

Hey JJ! Tell your mom she's a wuss for making you pull it out yourself! But nice work JJ! I don't think I could've done that to myself.
