Shea had two permanent teeth come in before his baby teeth fell out, so he had two rows just like a shark. It was cool and all, but the dentist thought the baby teeth should come out so the permanent teeth had more room. So first things first, he hadn't lost any teeth yet, so we had to make the tooth pillow. The patch is the pocket, how cute is he??:

Then he got the teeth pulled and got to stay home from school and eat milkshakes, applesauce and Yogurtland (there is one in UTAH now!) all day.
There were two huge holes at first, but now you can't even tell there were any teeth or holes there at all and his permanent teeth have moved right to the front.
His offering for the tooth fairy:
Since these were his first teeth, he was very interested in what we thought the Tooth Fairy would bring him. I told him that she used to bring me a quarter. He looked at me and said, "The price has gone up since then, right?!!" :-) Little did he know, the tooth fairy would bring him $5/per tooth!!!! (It's a long story and was an ACCIDENT!) We assured him it was probably only because it was a special situation that they were shark teeth and the dentist had to pull them, but not to expect that next time. We'll see if we have tears or not when he really looses his first tooth!
