Losing teeth



Trevor has lost two teeth already!
I couldn't even watch him wiggle the first one without feeling a bit nauseated.  It brought back the fear of that final pull when I was just 5 or 6.  Even though I wanted it pulled by my Dad,  the fear of the pain overcame me and I would run away in a panic.
Not so with this guy and I'm so glad. 
Last night we let them watch that popular video on youtube with the kid who gets his tooth pulled out by a rocket.  I think it's genius and it made it look pretty easy and maybe fun, but it was not comforting AT ALL to the boys.
Joel came in later pleading, "Don't get a rocket for Trevor, Mom.  We don't want a rocket."  He was very concerned and later tried to comfort him with a little during the pull.  The comfort was not well received by older brother.

TWO teeth! That's awesome! What a brave guy! I winced, giggled, and winced some more watching this video. Love you guys!

How courageous! I am with you on the queesy sick to my stomach feeling. Corbin's is loose and it makes me sick to think about. I don't tell him that though! I was the run away and panic type too. Congratulations Trevor!
