Dawson's Big News

Dawson has his first two loose teeth! It is a big deal in the Packer household. Unfortunately, his new teeth have already broken through behind his existing teeth. So, the dentist says he has one week to get those teeth out before they have to extract them. So, lots of apples and teeth wiggling. I never knew how easy it would be to convince Dawson to eat an apple every day. I told him the dentist said he had to eat one every day so his teeth will fall out. First he started to cry because he does not like apples. Then, he quickly decided this was better than having his teeth pulled with a string as Grandpa suggested. So, the countdown begins - one week! Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle....

Dawson says now that he is loosing a tooth, the only other things he needs to be a "big" boy is to tie his shoes and ride his bike without training wheels :)
