RUTHLESS & TOOTHLESS!

Good LORD! I have been waiting to post this occasion for about 3 months. Maybe it has been even longer than that. Brock's tooth has been wiggling forever. The past 3 weeks we said everyday, "today is the day that puppy is coming out!" Travis begged him to let daddy tug and pull it out. Brock didn't trust him...I wouldn't either. Travis got this determined thing on his mind that he was gonna yank it and the tooth fairy was a comin'. I kept screaming at Travis..."It is HIS tooth, let him have it out the way HE wants!!!!!!!" This stupid tooth has been driving me INSANE. It has been grossing me out. Brock everyday loved to show me how it can go left and right, swing backwards and forwards and this past week, how it can twist in a full circle. It has caused serious stress from Travis chasing him trying to get it out and all the "neato moves" that the tooth can do. Anyhow, last Friday night, the fam went to our friend's, the Bennett's. I talk about Carter Bennett, all the time on previous blogs. Anyways, Mrs. Amy used to be a nurse and she DIGS this stuff. So, she loosend the tooth even more. Saturday night, we went to dinner with them again and she asked to loosen the tooth again. She got a napkin and held it, and Brock kinda pulled back and out it went! We were ALL stunned! The best part was watching Brock after the tooth came out. He closed his mouth, felt his gums with his tongue and then felt the huge gap with his fingers. He turned white as a ghost and we thought he was going to faint. He was in SHOCK! All he said was, "Oh my GOD....what do I look like?" I shouted, "HE LOST HIS BIG TOOTH!! HE LOST HIS TOOTH"! It was great! The surrounding tables started clapping and cheering him on. So, the picture you are viewing is right when we got in the car. Of course, my phone was dead and I could not take pictures while in the restaurant.

So, needless to say, the tooth fairy arrived and left a $2 bill. Brock was stoked. The darn tooth fairy forgot to take the tooth, so she was requested to return again. That fairy must have had a lot on her plate that night.
