Today was a huge day in the Dorn household. Let me start from the beginning. In May Joey fell on the steps going to the basement and hit his mouth. A bottom tooth was loose. We took him to see the dentist. She said to keep watching the tooth, hoping it would re-harden and stay until his baby teeth fall out. It started hurting again yesterday. I noticed it was loose again. We went to the dentist today, she said it's time to pull it. The girls and I waited in the lobby while he was a big boy getting his tooth pulled. He never cried or screamed. The dentist said he did better than most adults. I am so proud of him. We put his tooth in his first tooth box and placed on the dresser. He's not sure about the toothfairy being at his bed while he sleeps.
Here's a funny..... the triplets learned about losing teeth from watching a video of cousin Grace losing her first. They associate a loose tooth with missing teeth. When we are out in public and they see someone with missing teeth they say, loudly, look she/he has a loose tooth. It is so embarrassing. God love the childs mind and mouth.
