lost a tooth!

Sawyer's tooth had been wiggly for over a month when Harrison decided to show him some techniques that might help speed things up and get the tooth to fall out. Sawyer would use a tissue and move the loose tooth back and forth multiple times a day, he'd constantly poke at it from behind with his tongue and he'd request apples to snack on. Ordinarily, my boys have a hard tme working together...but in this case, Harrison was all too eager to be of further assistance. I had no sooner told Sawyer that no I would not yank it out and it might be another week until he lost the tooth when Harrison came running upstairs to tell me that he had gone ahead and pulled it himself! How's that for teamwork!


Sawyer is super proud of his new smile, and he's still showing off the gap to everyone we know.

Now that is working together on a project for sure....

Sawyer looks very handsome as he proudly displays his missing tooth. I hope the tooth fairy paid him a fruitful visit!

I love the story and Sawyer looks amazingly cute but I am in shock! I know FOR SURE that he is not old enough to lose a tooth. Really, my heart is pounding at the idea that Piper's teeth could be falling out. And isn't she older than Sawyer? OMG. Help me, LOL.

Ooooohhh... makenna would be so jealous! How is he already losing teeth?!? It sure changes their look when the teeth start coming out. He is as cute as ever (his red hair SERIOUSLY kills me).
