No more front teeth!

Yep, it's gone. Megan finally lost that crooked tooth of hers!

We were gone all day today at the Children's Museum and the tooth wasn't loose at all. Before supper, she was eating a grape and she looked at me with blood on her lip and said, "mom, my tooth is bleeding." It was! She rinsed her mouth out, but her tooth was still in there. She then complained that her stomach was hurting and she didn't want to eat supper.

The rest of us sat down for supper and she did eat a little bit, but not much. I think when she bit on her grape, it made her tooth loose and she was worrying about it. All during supper, you could see it getting looser and looser. As she talked, you could see it move- it was really wierd.

After supper, we encouraged her to mess with it, Matt and I wanted her to lose it before bedtime so she didn't swallow it during the night. As it was getting closer to bedtime, she had it worked so loose that she was able to turn it sideways. While we were in the bathroom getting ready to brush her teeth before bed, I noticed that the tooth was just barely hanging in her mouth. Out of nowhere, Megan reached her hand up and just pulled her tooth right out of her mouth!

She looked at me with a great big grin, the biggest I had seen all day! She looked a lot better with her tooth gone than she did with a crooked one hanging there! (I think anyway). We called Matt in to come look and he was pretty excited that it was over with. Megan sent Matt downstairs to get her tooth box and she got it all ready for the tooth fairy. She is pretty excited about the tooth fairy coming, so hopefully she will calm down and go to sleep- she does have school tomorrow!
