Ben's first tooth- or first gap, I should say

Ben is so excited after years of watching his older siblings lose teeth and receive money and months (nay, near a year) of nursing his own slightly wiggly tooth, he finally lost his first tooth.

In accordance with tradition it was Aunt Renee who finally popped it out with her magical dental floss extractor. She took out Lauren's first tooth as well. As you can see by the picture the tooth fairy at the Kevern's house is much more creative than the tooth fairy at our house and because it was almost Christmas Ben received a dollar folded into a Christmas tree.
To double the fun late that evening Dallin came out complaining his tooth was so loose it hurt. He must have been working it for a couple of hours in bed. Renee popped his out and he received a Christmas tree dollar too. We had been looking at all of the cool origami dollars their cousin Jake (Randy's son) received from the tooth fairy earlier that evening and I think Dallin didn't want to miss this opportunity for a more interesting tooth fairy visit. :) Thank goodness I have such a talented sister and brother.
