We noticed a few weeks ago that Kevin had two teeth coming in on the bottom. The problem was, the two baby teeth weren't budging, not even a little. The big boy teeth were coming in right behind the baby teeth and didn't push them out of the way or break down or loosen the roots of the baby teeth. Apparently this often happens with the front teeth, so the dentist's verdict was to pull them.
So this morning, Kevin had his two lower front teeth pulled. Here he is with a new less-tooth grin!

He was pretty woozy from the procedure, he spent the afternoon resting quietly with his head in Mommy's lap. The Tooth Fairy had something special for him at bedtime - a balloon with lots of ribbon to commemorate the occasion...

and...


... a Star Wars book!
