and it is about time!! ley has had a loose tooth for a quite a few months now...and man, he would NOT wiggle that thing out! i kept telling him...'if you don't wiggle the tooth, it isn't going to become more loose and come out!' he didn't seem to care that much! but, today it was really on it's last leg. after our long day of sunday school then church (which we overslept for and were running around like chickens with our heads cut off!!), potluck lunch, and egg hunting (more like egg gathering :)--jeremy took leighton to the bathroom to get that little bad boy out! or so he thought...here is the video i shot of the two of them...
well, i didn't get any shots of the egg hunt at church today (like i said, we were running SO late, i was just glad everyone was fully dressed!), but we did take photos of leighton's mouth when just a mere 5 hours later, he no longer had that little baby tooth! ley did allow his daddy to pull it (with me holding his hand for moral support--ley's hand that is!!) with very little drama. he was nervous and then the blood freaked him out a bit (although he knew it was coming), but then he was over the moon excited! he can't wait for school tomorrow to show his teachers and friends!
before bed tonight, he told me that he thinks the tooth fairy builds her castle out of the teeth she collects (and he told her this in the little note we wrote for her!)--that's my leighton, his imagination never quits...and i wouldn't have it any other way! yeah for the firsts in our little ones lives--i know there will be many more little teeth to come {out}!!

Pulling teeth grosses me out! Probably from bad memories of my dad chasing me with a wrench... I cracked up when Leighton crawled away from Jeremy... he's so adorable! (Leighton that is--oh and Jeremy too). Tell Leighton congrats!
