First Lost Tooth!

Egan came to us the other day with a suprisingly very loose tooth. Upon inspection, we noticed a big tooth growing behind the loose one. It took another 2 days to loosen enough to have it pulled out. Aaron, Egan and I were all too chicken to pull it out, so we tied a string around it thinking we could yank it out, again no one wanted to do the pulling. With the string around the tooth Egan just stood there looking like "now what?" Inpatient and irritated with the whole scene, Evelyn walked by in her sneaky way, rolled her eyes and grabbed it hard, the tooth came right out! We laughed so hard, Evelyn was one to finally do it. Egan didn't think it was funny at first, but then when he realized it was over and he could finally put it under his pillow he was happy. 
That night the tooth fairy left a dollar under his pillow. We promptly went to the dollar store and he chose to buy a package of ring pops which he graciously shared with his devious sister. :) 
These kids keep getting older and reaching new milestones. I can't keep up! This fall they will both be in full day school!

STOP IT. He can't be old enough to be losing teeth. When did he get so big? What a fun "growing up" experience for him. LOoks like you guys had a great time at the beach, I'm jealous but glad you had such a few weekend.
