It's Official!


Kenna, age 5 1/2, lost her first tooth the day before Easter. We were getting ready to eat dinner which consisted of corn on the cob, one of Kenna's favorites. Suddenly her eyes welled up with tears and she said "I cant eat this, my tooth is too loose, but its my favorite and I want to eat it so bad!" So mommy checked out the situation and little "toofy" number one was ready for extraction! One quick pull and out she came. My little girl, who is not known for her self control when it comes to pain, handled the situation with bravery! A few minutes of swooshing salt water and back at the dinner table she was...to quickly realize that the other little loose tooth was also keeping her from eating her favorite corn on the cob! This time it was a full on SOB! Daddy being the sweety that he is (and a sucker for his baby girls tears) said "whenever someone looses a tooth we need to celebrate with ice cream". So we ditched the corn and off to 31 Flavors we went!!!

Oh and one more thing. Kenna is pretty proud of the fact that she lost her first tooth at age 5 and Jaxon didn't loose his until he was 6. This is a big deal in our house!
