Cj lost his first tooth!! I can't believe my last baby lost his first tooth! I didn't realize that I had not properly prepared him for tooth-loss until he came up to me and said something funny was happening to his tooth and then he wiggled it. Since he is my last baby, bearing my Grandpa's names, & I'm just too emotional lately anyway, as soon as I saw him wiggling that tooth tears totally sprang up in my eyes. Cj misunderstood and he thought that I was tearing up because there was something seriously wrong. He asked me in a very worried tone, "Mommy, did anything like this ever happen to Sissy or Brubby?"
Well, he left the tooth alone for a few days, then today he told Bekah, "Look I have a loose tooth." and there in his hand he held up his tooth, already fallen out.
After being told several times to show me his smile with the tooth missing, Cj just held up the tooth & said, "You know, I think I'm just going to put this back in."
Andy told Cj all about the Tooth Fairy, the Tooth Fairy according to Andy, "Of course she never opens her mouth in front of kids, because every tooth she's ever collected, she keeps in her mouth. She has a huge mouth, with more rows of teeth than a shark. Some of the teeth still have the blood on them from falling out of kid's mouths and they're all rusty and gross."
Cj just said, "Wow, and I just was thinking she looked like Tinkerbell."
