It came out!!

At 5:15 this morning, Ethan came busting into our bedroom saying "Red alert, red alert!" He ran to the sink, took his tooth out of his mouth and spit. Bryan and I just had to laugh. He pulled out his tooth!

I asked Ethan later what had happened. He was laying in bed wiggling his tooth with his tongue when his tooth fell out onto his tongue. It kind of freaked him out so he held it there, ran to our room and spit it out. I think the thing that worried him the most was that there wasn't any blood. I'm not surprised because the new one is already sticking out of his gums.

Now he wants to take the tooth to school to show his teacher that it fell out. I tried to explain that the hole in his smile would prove that it had fallen out but he doesn't seem to think that would be good enough proof.

Here is a photo of his new smile.
