On Regular Visits From the Tooth Fairy

Good thing I made this little tooth fairy pouch last week because we went from this to this today. Max had three teeth pulled to make room for the permanent ones hiding just below the surface. The x-rays show each of his permanent teeth is about twice the size of each baby tooth. Without enough space, they would tend to twist and turn to try to fit into the space left by his baby teeth, so we tried to make a little more room for them.

He definitely takes after his mama in that he needs as much help as possible trying to get those teeth to come in straight! Our dentist affirmed what we already know...he's going to be an orthodontic patient. Just trying to make sure our dentist and orthodontist retire early and in style!

And here's cute little brother, wanting to get in on all the picture action.
