. . . . and He Lost his First Tooth

On December 4th, Benjamin lost his first tooth. The funny part is that we didn't even know he had a loose tooth until I happened to look down in his mouth from standing over him. Benjamin had been complaining about his teeth hurting, but when we asked him to elaborate he would simply say his filled cavities were what was hurting. So by the time I realized that he had a loose tooth the other tooth had started growing in behind it, and pulling out the baby tooth took all of 2 minutes. The tooth fairy even came to visit and left 4 quarters under Benjamin's pillow!
