jacob lost a tooth

Tuesday night Jacob finally got brave enough to lose his first tooth! It was wiggly, wiggly, wiggly, but wouldn't come out with just a good tug. So Jacob got brave and Dad got the needle-nose pliers, and just like that his tooth was gone!

He was sooooo excited! He couldn't get to sleep for a long time that night. He finally fell asleep with a death-grip on the tooth envelope that he placed under his pillow. Somehow the tooth-fairy managed to pry the envelope out of his hand, without waking him, and replace the tooth with a silver dollar!
He was completely happy with his money and toothless grin. That's one reason I like this picture so much -- you can see the excitement in his eyes. And, I finally captured a REAL smile!
