Loose Tooth!

Jimmy's big announcement two days ago: I have a loose tooth!

This is something that he has been eagerly anticipating for sometime. He says it feels like it will fall out anytime. It's not too wiggly yet, but I can see the new tooth through the gum underneath.

exciting! Is this his first one?

Yes, it is his first one (and he has been jealously watching his friends lose their teeth all year long.)

Jimmy got a little impatient for the tooth to come out. Last night he wiggled that tooth every spare moment he had.
After the kids were in bed, I hurried to prepare the home for book club. Amelia came down and said "Jimmy's covered in blood and I need to clean him up." I was distracted by my urgent need to clean up. I knew that he had a loose tooth (and that it was bleeding when I tucked him in) so I gave her a napkin and sent her on her way. A few minutes later Jimmy came down, not covered in blood but with a big smile on his face- missing one tooth! In his hand was a tooth, with one blood vessel still attached. It was about an inch long. Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that part...
