Andrew's lost teeth


Andrew's been struggling with two VERY loose bottom teeth for weeks now. He would complain when eating hard foods that it "just hurt." To see them, you would agree. These two teeth could bend over and touch his lips almost. GROSS! One day, he even ate a whole apple by just using his top teeth. Poor guy. Well, finally they came out a few days before his 6th birthday. His first one came out Saturday night, then the second Monday night. But the second one disappeared. He had it at dinner, then I noticed it was gone when he was brushing his teeth. He didn't even feel it come out, it was that loose. So now we've been watching the permanent teeth come out even faster than before. Andrew has a little mouth and the two permanent teeth popped up behind the baby teeth about a month ago. In the last few days we've been able to see them shift towards the front and start to get in alignment with the others. It's actually pretty amazing.
