The First Tooth

Continuing our milestones series... :-D

These were Kelvin's first teeth in, six years ago:
(I just had to share this one too -- these were taken at very low resolution with our camcorder and with natural light on 2/9/03):Wasn't he just adorable? ;-)

A few weeks ago (Saturday night, 10/11) , the tooth on the left came out, and the one on the right is already loose!!! Here's how he looked a few days later:We don't do imaginary creatures here at our house (except in TV shows and literary texts ;-), so there was no Tooth Fairy gift or anything. We celebrated the boy with the funny "windowy" smile by being very proud of how easily he got the tooth out (more on that on another occasion) and telling everyone we met about the big news! The grandparents, aunts and uncles were all very happy too. It was a bittersweet milestone for me, the beginning of the end of my firstborn's "babyhood" :-(
