Tooth Be Gone!

 Ohhhhh. This boy.  He has been itching to lose a tooth.  A quick buck from the Tooth Fairy seemed like a dream come true and ever since a smidge of looseness was detected by his prying little fingers, he's been working on it a little every day.

Corey and I gave it a go a week back after Beck insisted that his tooth was ready.  We tried it and our efforts were fruitless, especially after Mommy didn't get it on the first try and Beck was a little afraid and not ready to try it again. (Lots of OW's, and ended in tears after a second of tugging).

Fast forward to take two.  This time, although still a bit leery of any pain that might be involved, the tooth was practically falling out on its own.  When having second thoughts, we mentioned to him that if it fell out in his sleep he might swallow it(ew) and that would mean NO money from Ms. Tooth Fairy.  That helped.  He let Corey try first (not his fave thing to do, haha), and he didn't get it.  Then, it was my turn (I admittedly DO like pulling out teeth, hehe), and after a quick tug it was out.  Beck was about to burst into tears the second I pulled, but when he realized it was out, he turned quick and was all smiles.  It was hilarious.

Beck wrote a special note to the Tooth Fairy, and couldn't wait to put it under his pillow.  We now have a happy boy who will be a dollar or two richer by morning no doubt.  Way to be brave, little buddy!
