Nothing like watching a video on youtube to try and figure out how to pull your son's tooth out. Max's tooth had been loose for a month and he wouldn't let us near it. I noticed last week that his permanent tooth was growing in behind the loose tooth.So..... The tooth had to go. With several unsuccessful attempts Matt and I finally turned to the internet and we found the answer. Dental Floss. We tied the dental floss around the loose tooth and then it came out so easy. Amazing! Max was pretty ticked at us throughout the whole process. When he looked in the mirror and saw his cute toothless grin, he couldn't stop giggling. He thought it was pretty cool, and of course he was excited for the tooth fairy to come. He scored $3.00 and 2 packs of bubble gum. What a fun milestone for Max but especially for Mom and Dad.

I can't believe he's old enough to lose his teeth! We are old. HE is darling.
That is so cute!
Wow!!! Are our kids already to that stage! Congrats Max!
Oh, and the bubble gum . . . so my big brother!
I'll try to remember the dental floss trick. Hunter keeps claiming that he has a loose tooth, but I don't think he does. His best friend has lost like 5 teeth already so he is feeling left behind.
Maxwell P. Smart,
What in the world are you doing losing a tooth already?! You are too little! Stop it and stop it right now. No more lost teeth! Do you understand? We're going to have to give you a whoopin if any more fall out!!
Love, Grandpa and Grandma
Trevor had this exact same thing happen to him last month! It was his front tooth and I heard about the dental floss trick. I talked him into letting me try it and then the stupid tooth didn't come out!! There was blood, tears, and accusations (Mom, you said it would come out). I think I may have done it wrong. Max, be glad you have more competent parents than your cousin. Congratulations! :)
