Friday night was a big night in the Rairick household! Owen lost (well, Chris pulled) his first tooth! It all started about 3 weeks ago or so when I noticed that Owen had almost 2 full big, permanent teeth in on the bottom even though he hadn't lost any baby teeth yet! We called the dentist because his baby teeth were not even loose at all. The dentist looked and encouraged Owen to try to wiggle and pull them himself or otherwise he would have to do it in a month or so if they weren't out yet! So a couple of weeks ago, Owen was eating some chicken nuggets when he bit down kind of funny and immediately loosened one of his teeth. He had been faithfully wiggling it daily, but at the same time, he was also quite wary of biting with it. On Friday night after dinner, Chris asked him if he could just wiggle it some and before Owen even realized it, Chris had pulled it out. Owen didn't quite know what to think at first, but quickly got over that and got really excited! He wanted me to take a picture and send it to everyone he knows, including Uncle Jim (who lives about 2 minutes away!). It was so much fun, but I can't believe that we are already at the losing teeth stage of life! Time flies!
