tooth adventure

i pulled out max's tooth today!  
it was his first loose tooth and he wanted it out. 
 i pulled hard!  
he is a tough kid.  
when we went to the dentist, the x-ray showed an extra permanent incisor tooth in the middle of his two permanent front teeth.  
so.... let the tooth adventures begin! 
 i can see his "extra" tooth already starting to come in.  when it grows in a little more, the dentist will pull it and hope the other permanent tooth comes down in the right place.  the dentist said to plan on braces at age 8 and around age 12.  
we keep telling him how unique he is!  not many people get an extra tooth.  
...and that means more money from the tooth fairy!
pretty exciting!
