A Lost Tooth

CJ lost his first tooth! The Saturday after Thanksgiving my brother Ross was over visiting and CJ showed him his loose tooth. CJ then disappeared for a few minutes and came back into the front room showing us his loose tooth, again. Only this time it was much, much more loose then it was just the few minutes before. As Ross was getting ready to leave we were standing in the kitchen talking when all of a sudden CJ started freaking out, we looked over at him and he no longer had a tooth in his mouth, it was in his hand. He was totally freaking out. We took him into the bathroom to rinse out his mouth (there wasn't a lot of bleeding). He was still freaking out. Clark asked him what was wrong and CJ just kept saying "my tooth, my tooth", Clark then asked him if it hurt and CJ said "No". We kept telling him that it wasn't a bad thing and that a new tooth would grow in. We took some pictures and he finally was okay with it. Although the next morning he woke up and was still a bit upset that it fell out, that is until he found the dollar that the "tooth fairy" left him. Now he shows every one his missing tooth! He is quite proud of it! It took me awhile to get used to him having that missing tooth. At first he looked a little goofy, now I am used to it and he is just the cutest toothless boy ever!

A bit upset about the tooth.

Cleaning up and starting to be okay with the fact that his tooth fell out.

All I want for Christmas is my 1 front tooth.

CJ and his tooth.


Here is a picture of my brother Ross & Izzy. It has nothing to really do with a lost tooth, but he was there when it happened and we don't get to see him as often as we'd like since he lives out of state. And this picture was taken the same night as CJ loosing his tooth and that is why I am posting it here.
