Sammy is going to get a 2nd visit from the Tooth Fairy!!

So, Sammy actually ate his lunch at school yesterday for the first time! (YAY!) He had asked for a "whole apple."
So, I put one in there and when I picked him up from school he said, "Hey, Mom! When I bit into my apple at lunch my tooth got really wiggly!"
He was right. It was hanging by thread. But he didn't want to pull it out.
When he woke up this morning I asked to see it and it was still hanging there. I said, "Just pull it, buddy." But he didn't want to.
I finally got it out of him that he wanted to show his new buddies at school. Apparently it is very cool to have a loose tooth in Kindergarten!
However, the excitement of a 2nd visit from the tooth fairy was too much and he decided he needed to pull it out before school. It didn't take much and that little tooth popped right out!
Matt and I were pretty happy since his big boy tooth was already coming in (just like his first one) and the dentist wanted to pull the baby tooth out for a mere 100 bucks! I guess he could get more than just 1 dollar for saving us $100!

This was him when he woke up.
Pulling.
Got it! Look at that smile!
There it is... another baby tooth gone.
(sniff, sniff) Can someone please stop these guys from growing so fast!?
JT thought it was pretty cool too!
And I had to throw in one pic of Eli walking around outside like he owns the place! ;o)

Another day... Another milestone!
