Toothless

Harper lost his first tooth!! I think these pictures do a pretty good job of summing up our feelings. Here is how it happened...After weeks of pestering Harper to let us pull out his tooth, and several unsuccessful attempts, he did it himself! My parents asked Harper if they wanted him to pull it out before they went home last Saturday. He said his usual "No." So Cam and I proceed to tell my parents bye while Harper goes inside. Seconds later he runs outside beaming with this tooth in his hand. He had gone behind the couch and have it a yank. He pulled it out himself and was oh so proud! 

He is the first in his class to lose a tooth. He couldn't wait to tell everyone all about it. He also wanted to show it to our friend and neighbor Lauren. Somehow with all of the excitement, he forgot what he did with the tooth. So he had to write the tooth fairy a note to let her know he "lost" ( no pun intended!) his tooth. 

The following morning Harper ran into our room beaming. He said, "Mooom, She came!!" She left him $2 and a special note. What sweet memories!
