Lilypie 1st Birthday Ticker

Saturday, September 02, 2006

It's milestone time! Last week we surprisingly discovered that Gracyn had a loose tooth. She was complaining of tooth pain and upon investigation we discovered that it was actually loose! I was really surprised because she just turned 5 a month ago and I really thought we wouldn't start having the tooth fairy visit for at least another year. I was wrong. Gracyn spent the entire week wiggling her tooth. Today we came to the conclusion that her tooth was loose enough to pull, but we were beat to the punch when Gracyn was running around the house and bumped her mouth on a chair. She said, " Mommy my lip is bleeding." I said, "nope...you lost your tooth!" Then, we didn't know where the tooth ended up and had to go on a tooth search. After all, how can the tooth fairy visit without the proof of a tooth? Jack found it after a few minutes. We were relieved that we'd actually get to keep the tooth and do the whole under the pillow bit. How anti-climatic would it have been to have lost the tooth? Very. So, after dealing with the blood and rinsing with salt water, we were able to take a picture of our snaggled-toothed girl. Once again this is proof that our little girl is growing up way to fast!

She is NOT snaggle toothed, just really cute as usual. Of course, I could be slightly partial!! It looks like it is a bottom tooth that has come out. What is it going to be worth from the tooth fairy?
