Red Letter Day

What a day today was!!! Such excitement! Lee has been for MONTHS asking when his loose tooth would come out...seemed like he was asking every day. I really wanted to just rip it out for him but knew that wouldn't help down the road.

He's been eating apples, not letting me slice the apple, in hopes that his tooth would come out that way. Then it seemed all the sudden his tooth got really loose and it would be a matter of time. Then wouldn't you know it, the tooth finally fell out! He was brushing his teeth and it fell out and into the sink!

He came out screaming 'IT FELL OUT!' I cherish the look on his face when he came and told us all. He was excited and shocked that his tooth was finally out! Ian was so excited for him and Dru SWEARS he's got a loose tooth too! He better not! So we got on the phone and called both sets of the grandparents and they were appropriately excited!

Here is Lee right after he came running out to show us the hole where his tooth had been.

Here is the infamous tooth! It's SO tiny and amazing!
So that was the major excitement for the day and it was! What a rite of passage for kids...I hope everyone had a good day today!
