Bye Bye #5

Gavin came home from school Wednesday with his 5th loose tooth hanging on for dear life. Literally. This tooth has been on the verge of falling out for about 3 weeks now.

This is what it looked like:



It was sideways! shudder! We made it thru dinner without it falling out while he was eating. Then Ken asked Gavin if he wanted him to pull it out. To our surprise he said YES!!

So he swished around some ice water in his mouth and then Ken reached in and just plucked it right out! No blood or tears!!

The after picture:




So long baby tooth #5.

yikes! Wesley would have ran out of the room crying. Instead of letting us do that he would lose them while sleeping and swallow them. Yeah..nice;)

Wow! Logan has lost one and now the new one is coming in. The two teeth beside it are pretty loose, but it took him about 2 months to lose the first one when his dentist said it would only be a couple of days...LOL!
