Lose One, Gain Two?
Dylan lost his first tooth today! It is his lower, right, front tooth. It came as a huge surprise to me, since it wasn't loose. I arrived home to a tooth in a plastic bag from school. I tried to get the story out of Dylan about how it happened. Here's what I learned:
He lost the tooth during facts time at school. His teacher noticed that his tooth was missing. They then found the tooth on the floor by his chair. It bled a little bit.
He is now excited that he can do an experiment tonight. He put the tooth under his pillow to see if there is a tooth fairy. Well, he's really put the tooth under his pillow to see if it gets replaced with money. He can draw his own conclusions from the results. Let's hope he's not disappointed with a dollar, since one of his friends said you can get four dollars!
Since he lost a tooth, I figured I should double-check how many teeth he has in his mouth. It had been a while since I did a survey for the 6-year-old molars. The back left molar has been there for a while, since it is more than half-way exposed. I also think that I can see the adult tooth barely poking out of the gap in the front of his mouth.

Second Half Photos
I recently updated the family photo index to reflect all of the photo albums I posted in the second half of last year (2009). Since this included seven albums, I am going to be lazy and not include direct links to them all. The family albums index can take you to them.
The pictures include vacation photos from the summer, Dylan's first day of kindergarten, two trips into Chicago, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Over 800 pictures in all!
