And so it continues...

Tooth #4 is ready to come out.
Well, if you ask my son, he may have a different story. We made our 6 month check up visit to the dentist and he saw the missing tooth and was all excited that HE, the dentist, didn't have to pull it. I knew there was a "but" coming though.
See I had already taken a peak inside my sons mouth and saw that loose tooth #4 already had the adult tooth pushing through behind it. This is the problem we had with the first two teeth that were pulled.
So here comes the but.....
The dentist said that he has until Thursday, 1 week, to have it out or it will have to be pulled.....
Those of you who have been keeping tabs.....can probably feel what's coming next....
A job for dad!!!!
Well not so fast!!! The dentist almost came to my sons rescue,almost...he said dad had to be very careful when pulling a tooth with fishing string......hmmmm....wonder why. He said that the tissue is very soft but dad can give it a shot. You could see my son sit up in his chair excited for a split second and then sit back down. So of course who steps up to the plate??.....Dad said "Don't worry about it mom, I got it all under control."
Aren't those famous last words....haha.
Well the tooth hasn't come out yet but D-Day is fast approaching. So my son has three choices...
A. He pulls it
B. The Dentist pulls it
C. Dad pulls it

I am not sure what is going to happen. All I know is that it must be done by Thursday!!
I will keep you posted....
