Over the course of the last two weeks, Dallin has been undergoing some cosmetic transformations:
Stage 1: The Freaky Snaggle Tooth
That sucker was beyond loose, but it was hanging on for dear life. I think Dallin was channeling his inner Nanny McPhee...
At last, he managed to wiggle it out one day during class, which was thrilling because 1st grade is a breeding ground for loose teeth, therefore his teacher was well-equipped with the special tooth-necklace-container to send home with him. Dallin took special care to have Dad write a note to the tooth fairy instructing her to leave the money without hijacking his tooth-necklace.
It was all downhill from there. Front tooth #2 was loose before #1 had even come out. It wasn't long until it was in the same off-kiltered position, but hanging on tight.
Front Tooth #2 -" Never Gonna Let You Go!"
Finally this afternoon I decided to give it one last chance before pulling out the professional tools (pliers, string & a doorknob, etc). One good tug and that tooth came free! Dallin is our first official Halloween decoration!
Hey Dallin, can you say "Six sleek swans swam swiftly southwards?"
I guess we know what will be on Dallin's Christmas list this year!

Hehehe! That is too cute. :-) I'm glad you took pictures of all stages!
I don't think I will tell Sabrina about Dallin. She is SURE that she is the ONLY kid in ALL 1st grade that has yet to loose a tooth! Hope the tooth fairy treated him well ;c)
Zoe doesn't even have any loose teeth. I can't believe Dallin has already lost some! I guess no bobbing for apples this Halloween!
