Mark lost his 1st tooth!!!

...or to be more accurate, he pulled it out, all by himself!  This morning, Mark came into our bedroom to show me that he could bend his tooth aaaaalll the way back (at 90 degrees to his gums - *ick*). I asked him if he would like to try pulling it out, to which he enthusiastically replied, "sure!" - I looped a piece of floss around the tooth, and was about to count down for him, when he gave one quick yank, and the tooth flew out! Mark was so excited he forgot to get worried about the little bit of blood. He bit down on the cold washrag I gave him, and then obliged me to take some pictures.
If you look closely you can see the tooth attached to the string.

My big boy!

Mark was so excited to tell Sean about his tooth. Sean understood right away, and put his finger into the brand new gap in Mark's mouth, then pointed at his own teeth and made a chomping motion.

Just for grandma, here is another Sean picture.
