Ethan lost a tooth.

Ethan lost his 3rd tooth right after we got back from the Redwoods. He came in one morning after eating an apple saying he hurt his tooth while eating the apple and it hurt and is wiggly. I thought nothing of it because he's kinda dramatic about that kind of stuff and I was sleeping so I said, "Ok, I'll look at it later." 

I totally forgot about it and so did he. Then, that night while flossing him, I saw the tooth and wiggled it a little. It was REALLY wiggly. I told him I think it was ready to be pulled and wouldn't hurt at all. After a few minutes of persuasion, he agreed to let me tug at it and try to pull it out. Really, I just kept reminding him that the tooth fairy would come if he got it out. 

I got some toilet paper, dried off the tooth and then tugged and out it fell! No tears, no whining, no pain! He was so happy! This is tooth #3 for him. The tooth fairy gave him $1. He currently has 2 other wiggly teeth.
