No more snaggletooth!!

For about two weeks Luke's front tooth has been hanging on for dear life. We have been referring to it as his "snaggletooth". About a week ago I convinced him to let me tie dental floss around it and try to tie it off. Not so successful. The only thing that happened is a little blood and now it hung even lower in his grin! So on Saturday we were eating Olive Garden pasta. He took a bite and it caused his tooth to twist. He was freaking out a little bit and after much coaxing he let Joey pull it out. He was so afraid it would hurt and when Joey was done he was shocked. "That did not hurt!" he shouted. So he put his tooth under the pillow and was rewarded with $2. He had suggested that the tooth fairy bring him $3 since it was a "bigger" tooth. Guess the tooth fairy was not up for negotiating. I reminded him that Mom and Dad maybe got a dollar with each tooth if we were lucky!
