Tooth tricks

Now you see it ...

and now you don't. (Any tooth able to perform that feat is long overdue for removal.)

Alena lost her first tooth and left us anticipating the tooth fairy's inaugural visit to our house. She's been wiggling the sucker for weeks and totally creeping me out with it. I, for one, was glad she finally let the resident extractor take care of the job.

She's now awaiting the 20 spot she thinks the tooth fairy might leave. Let's hope she's not too disappointed with singles.

*As a footnote, others in the house who have yet to loose a tooth were in a limbo state of awe and repulsion at the whole ordeal. Each one claims they will not allow the pulling of any loose teeth they may possess in the future.
