Toothless Joe....

So Maxwell is losing teeth about as fast as Kylynne is getting them. He has had 3 teeth that have been loose for a couple of weeks that have literally been hanging on by a thread and he finally lost them all within about a week. Last week he came home from school with a tooth in his pocket. He said it fell out while he was eating lunch and the school nurse gave him a little treasure box to put it in for the tooth fairy.
Later that day he pulled the first of his two front teeth and then friday after school he pulled the other one out.
His two top permanent teeth are already starting to grow in.

The dentist said that most kids don't usually start losing teeth until they are about 6 but when a child gets his teeth at an early age he will lose them early too. He got his first two teeth at 3months of age and has now lost 5 teeth total.

I can't help but smile when I see his smile... he's so cute. The best part is how a talks with a lisp now, I love it!

Wow, Maxwell! How did you get all those holes in your mouth? I hope the tooth fairy paid you good money for those pearly whites. Can't wait to see you in a couple weeks! We love you all and miss you very much!

You've got the most beautiful kids I've ever seen. I know I say that all the time in my comments, but they are so so so pretty. That picture of Kylynne in the right side is adorable. Isaac still has his two top teeth. He lost the two bottom not too long ago though. So we'll see. They are loose.

Maxwell and Kylynne could share food. What a cute smile! The tooth fairy must be working over time with him.
