Wiggle, Twist, Pull

Alicyn has a VERY VERY loose tooth. It's one of her TOP front teeth, you know one of the ones that she has bumped 100 times in her 5 years of clumsiness. At the dentist last week, he said he thought this one would be out before her semi loose bottom tooth. So she's been wiggling, and been excited about it until yesterday. Now she has decided she is scared and doesn't want to touch the tooth. Let me tell you, this is enough to make this mama go nuts. This tooth is literally hanging from her mouth. When she talks it moves, when she closes her mouth it rests all funky on her lip. It's nasty and needs to go. It's not connected on the front or back, just basically hanging by a thread on the side. We have even tried to bribe her (well really just me, Rich thinks I need to chill). It's to the point that I find myself getting mad when she pulls away while I am trying to wiggle it. Anyone have any tips for yanking this thing out? I told her I was going to make her sit on her hands but she just laughed at me. I will be sure to post a picture when this thing ever comes out, she is going to have an adorable toothless grin for a while too, the dentist said front top teeth come in between 7-8.

While Miss A is about to lose her first tooth, Jaxon cut a new molar!!! This is the 2nd of the 1 year molars. I will be glad when they are all in. He now has 10 teeth, or partial teeth I should say. I heard someone say one time that adults could never handle the pain that comes with teething. JT has gotten these last 3 all within a week of each other so its been a busy few weeks in that mouth of his. I wonder if that has anything to do with the ear infection...hmmm.
