one down...

Tolman lost his first tooth tonight. Not really sure how it happened exactly. I was pulling off his sweatshirt and somehow during the process, the tooth came out. Tol was a little terrified at first, but after talking to his Auntie Jess and Auntie Chel, he felt much better about the loss.
He is young to be losing a tooth, but the dentist warned us a while back that this might happen because of a hard blow to the mouth a while back. So now we decide to either wait a couple to 3 years for his new tooth to come in or we get a prosthetic. We'll see.
Good news is that the TOOTHFAIRY will be paying Tol a visit tonight.

Wow! Congrats Tol! I hope the toothfairy totally hooked you up! You'll have to come over and show me your new smile. . .

HOLY CRAP! I cannot believe he has already lost a tooth. Maybe it was all the candy and soda I loaded him up on that did it. Ha ha ha.

PS It is very fitting Trace has the same jammies. Perfect for little car guys.

Oh my gosh- he seems young to loose a tooth... How hard exactly were you pulling his shirt off his head? (kidding) but seriously that's crazy- I guess the Tooth Fairy will be visiting your house any night now. Fun.

I can totally relate! Our little guy hit his mouth at 13 months and pushed 1 of his front top teeth all the way back up into his gum. It came back down on its own after about 6 months. Then just before he turned 2 he fell and hit his mouth again. This time he knocked out the opposite top tooth. So he is toothless for 6 or 7 years. We are getting a false tooth in the next couple of months
