It's been a long time coming... but Allie has finally lost some teeth! Two to be exact! She has been wiggling the bottom two since before Christmas with not much progress. Our next door neighbors cousin who is a pediatric dentist (what are the chances right?) has been staying with them for a while and looked at them one day and said they really needed to come out since the permanent ones were breaking through. I calmly told Frank I couldn't make my first child lose her first teeth in the dentist chair. I mean that's a monumental event right? And I sure didn't want to leave any bad memories of the dentist this early in her life. Then we saw our friends Harry and Christine (who are our actual dentists) at the soccer fields and they too said 'eesh, they really need to come out'. I was so sad for her! However.... all you have to do is tell a five year old is that the tooth fairy pays double for the teeth if the dentist has to take them out. She said to call them in the morning because she wanted her teeth out! I was way more scared and worried than she was, she never even flinched, cried or acted scared. I was very, very proud!!
Apparently all you need is a little orange nose and everything is good!
All done and all smiles!
Look at the size of those roots! They look like shark teeth!!!
Hello tooth fairy!
