Ok, ya'll will think it's totally crazy but in our little family my hubby pulls our kids' loose teeth with plyers. The funny thing is .... it doesn't hurt at all! When you pull a tooth straight up out of it's little home, it comes out nice and clean. As opposed to breaking it off by wrenching it forward and backward. They love it and Colt couldn't wait to have his dad do it because he has seen it done to his sissy and he knew it wouldn't hurt!
The other tooth right next to it is loose too...they plyers will be needed again soon! Oh and the bonus is that we always go out for ice cream when someone looses a tooth!

The thought of plyers going in my mouth makes me shudder. Seriously. Is this how his teeth were pulled? I would never think to actually do that... way to go Colt for being so brave!

ReplyDeleteCute! My son is missing a tooth.... not from natural causes though. His had to be pulled at the dentist ! I await the day for the adult tooth to come through :)

ReplyDeleteoh yeah suuuuuuuuuure it's all fine till dad pulls the wrong one!!
ReplyDeletejust kidding!
my daddy use to do the same thing. we could never convince our daughter to let us do i though. she swallowed 2 teeth cuz she lets them wiggle and fall out on their own. chicken!
Tell Colt that is the same tooth Sam just lost this month! They both have the same smile now...cute
ReplyDeleteStinkin' cute - and what a fun tradition - both the pliers and the ice cream!
ReplyDeleteWhoa Buddy...I think you are even cuter now with that little hole in your smile. Now you can drink through a straw without opening your mouth...just put the straw in the place where your tooth was!!! Do you think a jelly bean might fit in their too??? I love you and miss you...Grammy
