First (FOUR) Teeth Out

Brady lost his first tooth yesterday...and his second...and his third...and his fourth! This kid is a trooper! We went to the dentist for a routine cleaning yesterday (and to have them look at his "shark teeth." He has two permanent teeth growing in behind his bottom baby teeth.) They extracted all FOUR bottom center teeth to allow room for the big guys to come forward. OMG, it was awful for this mama to watch!  But boy oh boy, what a brave little man!  I cried and my heart broke...he watched the movie Epic (for the 30th time) and kind of twitched a bit going, "ooo, oww" but otherwise did freaking Awesome as they yanked these four baby teeth from his little jaw. Crazy rite of passage for this incredible kid!
FOUR HOLES where those stubborn baby teeth were!
Way longer than I thought...and explains the yanking I witnessed at the dentist's office. (shudder).  I'm told these long roots mean that these teeth were not coming out any time soon!

I bet it stressed your hair out to see Brady get his shark teeth extracted. In any case, it was all for the best, and though it may have been a frightening sight, it will be a plus for the growth of his permanent teeth. Thanks for sharing that with us! All the best to your family! :)
