Sam lost his first tooth today!

Phew!  It’s been loose for weeks.  I thought for sure it was gonna come out every day this last week.  In the end, he was eating lunch and yelping in pain.  Jack took a look and saw the tooth was completely sideways.  Even so, I had to give it a tug with a tissue to take it out.  Sam was shocked and relieved.  He lost the tooth AGAIN on the way downstairs to show Ben.  We found it using a flashlight on the stairs and he proudly showed it off to his dad.  Jack kindly offered his little box to Sam to keep the tooth safe until the fairy comes.

 

He already made a note asking for Skittles too.

I feel like this is the last milestone of childhood.  (Nothing left to celebrate until adolescence…and we don’t really want to celebrate voice cracking and hairy armpits 😉

Man, that tooth had a good long run!  For fun, I looked up my blog post about his first tooth.  My chubby little baby is so grown up now!
