Last Sunday night right before Jackson went to bed I wiggled his loose teeth (he had 3) to see how they were coming along. I figured they still had a couple of weeks until they came out, so I told Jackson to be patient, but to keep wiggling them and they would be ready to pull out before too long. Well, he went to sleep (or so I thought) and about an hour later he came running out of the bedroom saying "Mom, I pulled out one of my loose teeth!" He was just gushing blood and was so proud of himself! He pulled out the loose one on the bottom. I told him to go put it under his pillow, and washed him up and sent him back to bed. Well, I guess the anticipation of the money he would be getting made him want to keep trying with his other teeth. So about another hour and a half later (by this time it was 10:30 at night) he came running out saying "Mom, I pulled out both of my top teeth!" I looked, and sure enough, he had! This time he was really bleeding (remember the teeth were NOT ready to be pulled out as of just a few hours ago!) so I cleaned him up again and told him to put the other two teeth under his pillow too! He then said, "Mom, I would make a good Jack-o-lantern for Halloween!!" I thought that was a funny story! I am just glad that I didn't have to pull them out, 'cause that is not my thing!!

HOW CUTE!!!!!!!! Jackson is such a fun kid!!!! I wish I knew him better!!! What a cute and clever thing to say! Hope you guys are doing great! Love you guys!
Awwwww, he is so the best Jackson-o-lantern I have ever seen!! Bet he'll also be singing a certain song at Christmas. . .something about two front teeth:)
That's so funny. I think that once the shock of the first tooth lost wears off they just want the money. Evan pulled out one of his front teeth this week, just after we did our family picture. I threatened him not to wiggle them until we got a good picture, amazingly enough, it worked.
Very cute! And brave! The thought of pulling out teeth grosses me out - glad he can do it. He's so cute toothless!
I can't believe he did that! I used to work on my teeth so they'd come out pretty quick but not THAT quick! That is funny!
I was wondering if you were going to put a post up of his lovely teeth. I still cannot believe he did that! Crazy kid! At least he got some sweet moolah out of it! Lol. Love ya!
Wow, that Jackson is impressive. Now he's in it to make money :). He is the cutest jack-o-lantern I have ever seen.
How cute is that!! I'm excited for those moments with Parker!
Emily, that is hilarious. What a funny kid. We miss you guys! Adam got a haircut a couple of days ago and he was excited because John told him he looked like Jackson. He thinks Jackson is the coolest. Love you!
