It finally happened!

My sweet Stock has finally lost his first tooth. He has been very impatiently waiting for this to happen since kindergarten when all of his friends started losing their teeth. We have had many false alarms, including a fake loose tooth in April. He had been working on this one for several weeks.
The other night we put the kids to bed and a little while later he came running in to us yelling for us to see that he had lost his tooth. It reminded me of a Christmas morning. He tried to wake Abby up to show her just like he does when he tells us all that Santa has come in the night.

The one next to it is loose. The top two are getting there as well. We might end up with a boy with no front teeth for a while.

It is no surprise that it has taken so much longer for his teeth to start falling out. He didn't have a tooth pop through until the day after he turned 18 months!!! He was pretty excited that the toothfairy brought him a dollar. It has been a fun thing for all of us.
