Missing...





One front tooth!! It's official, Logan FINALLY lost a tooth! He was 1 when he cut his first tooth so the dentist said it would be a while before Logan lost any teeth, boy was his right! His "big" tooth has already grown in behind his baby tooth, that's what helped get it going. Logan has been "loosening" up the tooth for about a week. Last night Mike and I went out to dinner and got a sitter. When we got home Logan came running to me with a goofy grin on his face and a hole in his mouth. He was SO excited because he pulled the tooth himself. I asked him where it was and then he got teary eyed and said he lost it! WHAT!!??!! You just pulled your first tooth and you lost it already?? He proceeded to tell us that the sitter told him to go rinse his mouth out and then put the tooth in a safe place until we got home. (Later the sitter told us as soon as she told him that she had the thought that she should have taken the tooth from him then but did not) Logan went to the bathroom to rinse his mouth, while holding the tooth in his hand over the sink. It fell out of his hand. He said he wasn't sure if it went down the drain or not. Mike broke out the tools pulled the trap and NO TOOTH! We questioned Logan again, do you think you dropped it on the floor, are you sure it didn't go down the drain, etc.? So everyone got down on their hands and knees looking for Logan's very small, white baby tooth on the floor. Mike picked up the bathroom rug and gave it a little shake and, tink...tink...tink. NO BODY MOVE! The tooth had fallen out of the rug and we found it!! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Logan was so happy and now he has a great story to tell along with losing his first tooth! KIDS I TELL YA!!
Congrats Logan and the tooth fairy made her first appearance at our house!!
