KO's in baseball?

Are there knockouts in baseball? There sure are...during backyard catch!

TJ's wiggly tooth was officially knocked out by a toss from Daddy in the back yard two nights ago. And T is very proud of it. We were finishing up before going in for the night. Tim threw it and TJ caught the ball in his glove right in front of his face. The force of it, however, made the glove smack back into his mouth. T looked at me and I shouted, "good catch!" like an idiot hoping he'd see me not react and brush it off. But it wasn't brush-off-able. A second later, there were tears but only because of the blood. He said it didn't hurt. So after rinsing his mouth out with water into the grass, we asked him to smile and Tim picked his tooth up out of his mouth. Easiest way to lose a tooth, I guess! He was super relieved to be able to eat without it getting in the way too. Of course, we had a celebration snack before bed.

T talks differently now and it's really cute. And more grown up actually. Which is sweet and sad at the same time. I love how proud he is of it. That little gap in his teeth. And his whistle and lisp when he talks. Sweet! I hope the giant tooth takes awhile to come in.
