All of Elliot's Teeth Fall Out

Elliot lost his first tooth (bottom front) last summer. It started getting wiggly while eating a burrito on a camping trip and fell out a while later when he was eating some canteloupe.

 Unfortunately, his top teeth decided that they did not want to space themselves out nicely and he ended up losing 4 across the front top over a short time span. 
The exodus of the top teeth began when Tauriel accidentally kneed him in the mouth while they were playing stairs slide. One feel out right then, and one or two next it got loose. I was able to pull a VERY wiggly one out a week or so later. 

Two missing on the top

Another fell out when Dad swung him onto the couch. I pulled tooth number six out after Ethan kicked him in the face a month later. 

A great shot of his gumline nowadays! With some bonus crazy hair.

Oh how I love my silly boy!
 
He finally has a top tooth growing back in. It was rough for a while there because he didn't have enough teeth to bite stuff. We had to cut up things like pizza and apples for him to be able to eat them. Thank goodness that teeth grow back!
