Huge milestone!!

Look at my big boy, Holtie!!  He FINALLY lost his first tooth!  Just sitting there playing w/ the thing...dangling...he shouts, "Mom, my tooth...my tooth came out!"  Big smile and no blood. 
Sooo exciting!!
I wrote the tooth fairy a note asking her to leave my baby's first tooth for me to keep.  John was grossed out by that, but whatever.  Little does he know I still have the stick I peed on to tell me we were having him!  Seriously! 
On another note...Holt isn't convinced of the tooth fairy.  Here's the conversation before bed...
Holt:  "Mom, I still don't think there is a tooth fairy."
Me: "Well, I would believe if you want her to bring your money for that thing."
Holt: "Okay, I do.  But I sort of think your parents come in and give you the money."
Me: "I never saw my parents come in and give me money and I always got it for my teeth."
Holt: "yeah, well, parents are good at knowing when kids are asleep.  Besides, if she was around when you were little, doesn't she get really old?"
Me: "No, she's magic. She stays the same age."
Holt: "No, that doesn't happen."
Me: "okay, well, I'm not absolutely sure.  Maybe she has a baby and that baby becomes the tooth fairy when she gets older...and so on."
Holt: "Really?  So who has the baby w/ her?  There's a man tooth fairy too?"

OMG!!!  This is my son!!!  I wanted to hand him his money and tell him to forget it.  But, I stuck to it trying so very hard to keep a straight face.  He cracks me up!!  What a little toot he is!

  2. I just read this to Sean, and we were cracking up! I think I still have the pee stick somewhere too so you're not the only one. :) Take lots of pics with those big teeth missing. The new ones come in FAST.
