Jace lost his first tooth!

I know it may seem kinda late to some of you, but Andruski's like to keep their baby teeth in their mouths as long as possible.  That being said, Jace finally lost his first tooth.  (He is 7 years 5 months and 10 days old)

Here he is with his tooth missing.

He was very excited to show me about a week ago that his tooth was loose.  I told him to keep wiggling it and it would come out.  I really do not like to pull out teeth, so I was hoping someone else would.  I tried to get him to let Aunt Jill pull it out at the Pioneer Activity yesterday but he said no.  When we got home he wanted to know if he could have an apple.  I said sure.  He started to eat the apple and came to show me how loose his tooth was, it was bleeding (yuck)... I told him to get a tissue that it was really loose, bleeding and almost out.  He went into the bathroom and pulled it out himself (another Andruski kid first!!)  I was so excited that I did not have to pull it, but I think he was more excited that he did it himself.

He was very excited this morning to find a crisp $1 bill under his pillow!
