Emma and Colin both lost their first tooth within two days of each other! These two are 22 months apart and can be a wee bit competitive with each other so you can imagine that Colin was less than thrilled when Emma lost her tooth first (he's 7 1/2 and she will be 6 in Oct.)
Yes, he is a little old to start losing teeth but the dentist doesn't seem worried so we're not either.
Emma lost her tooth one night a couple weeks ago when we were in West Virginia and let me tell you Colin's tooth got real loose REAL FAST after that! He was wiggling that thing like nobody's business! Two days later his fell out.
They both have a few more loose teeth and although Emma has forgotten about it, I catch Colin wiggling, pulling, and messing with his teeth constantly!
He wants to be the winner of round two and will stop at nothing, so when he asked me for wire and to punch a hole in an empty bottled water this morning I was worried, real worried.
But it wasn't what I thought, he was making fish traps for our creek (that's a whole other post).
( I had visions that I won't share about him yanking those teeth out to one up Emma!)

That is so funny that they lost them at the same time.....Ethan still hasn't lost any teeth. He has one that is a bit loose, but he really won't wiggle it. Wonder if Eli will loose his first??
Very cute pics! I love when they get all toothless again!
Did Emma get her teeth early? When Nicholas' first tooth came in at 4 months old (followed immediately by 5 more) my cousin told me they will often loose them early too. By age 6 he had lost 6 teeth so there may be something about that ;)
Congratulations Emma and Colin!
