Don't worry, I won't post every one...
But when your first born loses her first top tooth, you kinda have to make a racket about it.
So she had this snaggletooth going for a while...
The picture does not do it justice. At least 3 people told her that they were tempted to pull it out for her. But she wanted to wait - for what, I don't know. Luke finally convinced her to let him give it a good tug, but she got cold feet in the middle of the process and ran away. She clamped her hands over her mouth, came to me for a hug and then collapsed face first on our bed to cry it out. I tried to console her, noticed a bit of blood and when I took a look-see it was gone. There was a blood stain on my shirt and the sheets and the tooth was MIA somewhere on our bathroom floor for 3 days until Luke stepped on it. She got a dollar from the "tooth fairy" whom she already knows is us because she asked point blank and we're not into lying about that stuff.
And here's the new big guy already growing in to the space that magically opened up in her mouth within the past few months. No braces need yet! (Crossing fingers, praying, and feeding her lots of nutrient dense foods...)
And now the other top one is loose. Hopefully it will make its exit in a less dramatic fashion...
