is her two front teeth. Well perhaps she won't be able to say that come Christmas, but for now she is missing two front teeth. Keely lost her second tooth this weekend. This one had been loose when the first fell out and she hasn't been as persistent with it. But it had gotten quite loose and we kept telling her to pull it out. She gave some half hearted attempts and then we decided to try and shoot it out. Yes, you read that right. They do it on America's Funniest Home Videos so we thought it would work :) We tried to tie floss around it but it kept coming off. We tried string. It either came off before we could shoot the arrow (we chose the Nerf big bad bow) or when we shot the arrow it didn't pull the tooth out with the string. But after a few attempts, the tooth was now even more wiggly. So James took matters in his own hands...wrapped a tissue around the tooth and yanked it out without much effort.
It only bled a little, it was ready to come out. So now she's toothless on the middle bottom. She says it feels "weird" to have a big gaping hole but I think she is getting used to it. I didn't take a specific tooth picture but you can see her cheesy grin in this one from Sunday's hike (hint: double click on the picture and it will get bigger so you can see it better).
