Makenna Lost Tooth #2

Makenna lost her second tooth on the night of 3/13/10. It has been loose for a few months now but was just barely hanging on this particular day. She wanted Josh to pull it (since he pulled her last tooth as well). Josh tried and the first time it hurt her :( Josh felt so horrible about it, but apparently he loosened it just enough because then it was barely hanging on. We gave her time to recover and she finally asked him to do the final pull since she was unable to eat anything with it just hanging on. The last pull was easy and she didn't hardly notice! So she has yet another gap in the front of her mouth, but it is quickly filling in with permanent teeth. Her first permanent tooth has come in halfway and is at a diagonal angle and you can already see her second permanent tooth coming in and it is completely perpendicular to how it should be :( Poor kiddo. Looks like braces it is. She just doesn't seem to have enough room in her mouth.

"Look! It's really gone!"


Makenna with her official tooth puller :) I think this is the one aspect of being a Dad that Josh doesn't like. He's so afraid of hurting her.


Her new smile! (And as a sidenote - I've never thought this before, but I think she looks like her cousin Eden in this picture!)


Showing off her new gap!
