As you may know, when Carter was about 15 months old he had to have 5 caps put on his teeth because they came in with enamel missing for one reason or another. (I was told 3 didfferent possible reasons) it was sad, he had to be given something to make him kinda out of it which makes them fall asleep then strapped into a papoose like thing then had to have 5 mini root canals. but it was all ok. so he has had a rappers GrIlL (5 silver caps) since before he was 2.
The other day his front tooth was loose. I am thinking ok isnt 4 a little too young for a kid to start losing their teeth??? online there were a few cases of it. but yes it is rare. so I thought maybe his cap was just loose. so we took him to the dentist . and even worse news. his tooth was decaying at the root. The dentist said sometimes the body will just do that to your tooth root, OR the decay wasnt drilled all the way out the first time. ( which I bet is what happened) so he had to have it pulled. it was sad :(
but hearing Carter talk for the first few days was pretty cute with a little lisp. "leths play the Wii thporths" ha ha
so he will be without his front tooth for a few years :(
but he is cute enough to pull it off, plus he got 8 quarters from the tooth fairy since it was a tramatic event. :)

Carter looks cute with a missing front tooth, but too grown up. Stop it. It just makes me older
8 quarters, wow! I want to lose my teeth again. What a trooper, i'm glad everything went ok. He is totally cute enough to pull it off!
You're right, he is cute enough to pull it off. Poor kid! Glad it's over.
