The Bravest Boy!

I am so proud of Kaleb! A few weeks ago I noticed that one of his adult teeth (bottom front) had come all the way through, but his little baby teeth were still hanging in strong in the front of the big guys. I called the dentist and they suggested we work at wiggling it out on our own for the next two weeks and if it didn't come out on it's own then bring him in. Well that was over three weeks ago so yesterday when I noticed that there were now two adult teeth popping through and no baby teeth falling out I called the dentist back. Guess where we went today? Yup to the dentist. Well when they looked at K's teeth they decided that one on the top needed to come out too! Three teeth "wiggled" out and there were no tears, no screams of pain, nothing but the bravest boy around! The dentist said he was the best patient of the day. Of course we had to stop off at the store for a reward (along with some tylenol suggested by dentist), the second picture is K and his new toy. He thinks he is so cool because he has three holes in his mouth. Our coolest trick is a straw fits through the holes! Kids are amazing! Posted by Picasa

Yeah Kaleb! Kids are amazing!

Mine have one baby tooth left and then I blieve they'll be in braces!

Two years ago I bought the Karen Foster braces paper...thinking ahead!

Way to go Kaleb. Is the Tooth Fairy going to be extra nice to him?
