It's official - Riley has lost his first tooth!
His front two teeth have been a little loose since he and a friend were playing a few months ago and he knocked his face into a wall at school - it ended up being a lot less dramatic than it sounds. Since then, he has been able to wiggle them both but this week, we have had a lot more motion. He was eating an apple this evening and I didn't think anything of it. When I left to bring Grandmommy home, apparently the boys jumped into action. By the time I came home, Chris told me to go check out Riley in his room.
There he was, grinning a gap toothed smile, very proud of his new look! He said that it only hurt a little and that he was very brave. His tooth is currently under his pillow in a Crown Royale bag awaiting the arrival of the Tooth Fairy. He said that he knows that she will come tonight and that he thinks she will be leaving him $23 - that's a lot of inflation since my days of losing teeth!
The look is very cute today - let's hope it still looks this good in 8 weeks for Gabe's wedding!
