Toothless

Carter lost his first tooth on Aug 5th!!

He was, and still is, so excited about it.  It had been loose for a week or so, and then that morning, biting into some banana bread of all things, he exclaimed that he heard a "pop" and that it hurt.  I checked it out, and thing was almost out, so I just kinda put my nail against it to look at it and bent it out.  Just like that.  He didn't wince or anything.

He had to call all his grandparents to share the exciting news. That night he wrote a letter asking the tooth fairy if he could keep the tooth, and then put the tooth in a baggie under his pillow. :)

The tooth fairy was a  softie and decided to let him keep it, along with giving him two quarters. hahaa.  He was so excited.  Of course the next night, since he still had the tooth, he wanted to try putting it under his pillow again. Sneaky boy.  I told him the tooth fairy would probably get mad at him and decide to take back the money and tooth. hahahaa. 

So here are some pictures of my proud, sorta-lisp talking, first grader!
