Chase Lost His First Tooth - 9.30.14

On Sept. 15th, Chase noticed his first loose tooth! It's his bottom middle left tooth. He said it "started this morning when I took my medicine".

Chase has been constantly playing with his loose tooth. His finger is continually wiggling it and he complains if his food is "too hard" or "too big" because he doesn't like to have his loose tooth involved in any kind of eating. He only wants to eat with his "back teeth".

Tanner has offered his services to "help" Chase remove his loose tooth. However, Chase starts fake crying at the thought and has said several times, "mommy, I want my tooth to fall out all by itself".

On September 30th Chase got what he wanted. Chase woke up in the morning and noticed that his tooth was no longer in his mouth. At first he panicked because he thought he swallowed it while he was sleeping, but after a frantic search, we found it underneath his bed covers. It was amazing we found it because his little baby tooth is so small!

 Chase put it under his pillow at night (in a zip lock bag to make it easy for the tooth fairy to find) and when he woke he received $5. At first he was disappointed because he thought he was going to be left a toy! Where does he get these ideas? However, he rallied into a good mood when I told him he could go to Toys R Us and use the $5 combined with the money he "earned" from helping Grandma Nish and Ron, He was so happy to purchase a Skylander figure!

Of course - Jayden now says that her tooth is loose!
