Konnor lost his first tooth on January 17, 2008. He never does anything the easy way. About a year and a half ago, Konnor fell on the floor at school and bruised his tooth. The dentist had to Xray it and it was healing well, but then we found out in December that it was infected. So on January 17 he had to have it pulled. He was so brave. This is a picture of him before his tooth got pulled. He was so excited to bring his tooth home after it got pulled and he couldn't wait for the tooth fairy to leave him money under his pillow. I think he got $5. The dentist said he probably wouldn't lose anymore teeth for another 6 months to a year. Boy were they wrong. He lost his next tooth on April 17. It was his bottom tooth. He was so excited because now when he stuck his tongue through his teeth, it made an 'S' shape.
Then again yesterday he lost his other bottom tooth. He was crying when he got home because his tooth was so loose that he could bend it all the way down, but he was too frightened to pull it. I was trying to convince him when he got mad and turned to walk away. Just as he turned around his tooth came right out into his hand. He was soooo surprised and proud of himself for getting that tooth out. Hopefully he won't loose anymore for awhile, or he won't be able to bite into an apple(which is his favorite fruit).

WOW!! That is an adorable mouth, Konnor! I can't believe he was so brave to have it pulled!! I wouldn't have been! Have your tooth fairy visit here- ours only pays $1 for each tooth!!
Nephew Konnor! - Now you can keep your mouth closed and still drink through a straw.
