Cameron lost his second tooth today. I say "lost", but what really happened was "Mommy, my tooth is really really loose!" I am squeamish with loose teeth, I do not know why. But, Daddy is away, so the Mommy had to put her game face on and wiggle the tooth. "Yup, very loose, I think I have to pull it," I say, gagging a little bit. There were tears, he was scared. I'm sure he could sense my hesitation, but I did it! It didn't even hurt him. Now he thinks I'm more awesome than ever!
Way to go, Mom!! That's great, and I just love this shot to capture the moment. Those cheeks are too cute!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Good idea to photograph as the teeth come out! Just look at those ROSY cheeks!
ReplyDeleteEven without seeing the rest of his face, you can just feel how proud he is of himself in this shot! Good job Mom....and don't forget to put something under his pillow before you go to bed!
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You should be so proud of yourself!! I am dreading the loose tooth days to come :O)
ReplyDeletelook at that grin! he's keeping the tooth fairy busy for sure!
ReplyDeleteOh coolest mummy in the world!! His smile is precious. Thanks for your kind words re my water play :0)
ReplyDeleteGood job! I couldn't have done it. Adorable shot!
ReplyDeletehehe very cute! I couldn't have done it. I have a feeling those days are coming soon though!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute photo and sweet story. Good for you stepping up and doing something out of your comfort zone. I will admit, it made me squeamish reading about it. haha Good thing I have a few years before I start pulling any wiggly teeth. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one creeped out by loose teeth. My students sometimes want me to pull theirs and my answer is always a NO WAY!
