Duncan Loses Another One

Last Friday night, Duncan pulled out another tooth. It was a lower tooth, right next to the center two. It had been loose for a long time, but this week, it began getting really loose, and once it gets that way, he can't leave it alone. Then Friday, it was time for it to come out. Duncan knew he didn't want it pulled out with floss, he's been there, done that, and not a big fan. So he did it "Hunter" style.

Hunter (if you don't know, is Duncan's cousin. Kevin and Dawn's oldest son.) pulled his latest tooth out using a wash cloth.

Duncan's tooth came out pretty easily and didn't bleed hardly at all. Anna went to get the camera to take a picture... except I had the camera with me on the scout overnighter. Uh, oh.

Duncan didn't want the tooth fairy taking his tooth without a picture of it, so he and mommy decided to hide it from the tooth fairy! They put the tooth in a shoe box over night. Sure enough, the tooth fairy didn't find it. That's a relief.

So Saturday, after I got home, Anna took Duncan's picture with his tooth, and put it under his pillow for the tooth fairy.


The next morning, there was a dollar in the bag, and not a tooth.

Here's Duncan with his dollar, and the box he hid his tooth in the night before.

Tooth fairies are so easy to trick.

Duncan's two upper front teeth update: One of his front adult teeth is coming in. It's about half way. The other has yet to show it's self. He does all of his biting with his side teeth.
