Bye Bye Baby Tooth, Helloooo Tooth Fairy




Emma has had two wiggly bottom front teeth for about 3 months now. They have gone from being just a hint of a wiggle, to almost dangling out of her mouth. The one problem with these teeth taking soooo long to fall out, is that the new permenant teeth had already poked their little tops up. I figured I better check with the dentist and he said, " bring her in those little teeth have to come out." I didn't warn her ahead of time and just picked her up early from school yesterday. But, she was a trooper and after the dentist put some sleepy potion on her teeth, he actually had her pull the teeth out herself. Yuck ( mom is very squeamish with anything to do with teeth). So, we now have a little girl with a window in her mouth. And the tooth fairy named Flicker arrived late last night with some money under the pillow. Emma wasn't impressed that it was " Only 2 dollars!" I guess the tooth fairy is a cheapskate.

Two dollars is more than OUR tooth fairy forks out. The bank does give out Golden dollar coins so we have stocked up! You NEVER KNOW when you need it. Congrats to Emma!

Congrats Emma!!! Kaleb lost #3 last week. He got $1. I think for his first 2 teeth he got a dollar and something extra. So much for a quarter now, eh?
