Mckenzie's First Lost Tooth!!





McKenzie lost her first tooth!! It was sooooo loose! For the past couple of nights Scott would wiggle it and try to pop it out! McKenzie was absolutely MANIC about it. She was terrified (which is not like her?) she was crying and screaming hysterically when Scott was attempting to pull it and then she was laughing uncontrollably when he would slip off the tooth . . . This crazy cycle went on for a few minutes until she refused to let him try again. I finally offered to try pulling it . . .I have never pulled a tooth before . . .so I grabbed it and pulled forward just a touch and it came right out!!! Kenzie was not as relieved as I thought she would be, instead the blood freaked her out and she wouldn't swallow or close her mouth all the way. She continued to talk strangely all the next day and wouldn't swallow her spit. . . . . I don't know? It was an extreme reaction for Kenz. She is usually excited about new things and can take them in stride, but this really shook her up. ?? She did get a dollar from the tooth fairy and has now adjusted to having her tooth gone. What can I say? Life is never boring. WE love you Kenz. Congrats on a big step toward growing-up, sometimes it hurts, but we do the best we can and we all get through it somehow.
