Guess What...







HAILEY LOST HER FIRST TOOTH!!!

A month ago at a routine dentist appointment, we found out Hailey had two loose teeth. Come to find out, the permanent ones were already making their way out. This past Monday, I took her back to the dentist because the permanent tooth was really poking out and growing a little crooked. We are scheduled for the 29th of September to have her sedated and to have the two teeth removed. Now, we only have to have ONE removed. Thank goodness. If only that one could miraculously get loose and fall out before the 29th too. It would make the tooth fairy seem a lot cheaper. Right now I am looking at whatever the tooth fairy brings plus $140. Ugh!
Anyways, Hailey is super excited to have the tooth out, although she doesn't like the big red bloody blister sitting there. Hopefully it goes away quickly. I don't remember this part.
She stuck her tooth (in her special tooth tin) under her pillow and is ready to see what the tooth fairy leaves in exchange.
*Note* the tooth did not fall out on its own. Hailey has been wiggling it at school, and every night I put anbesol on her gums and wiggle it like crazy. Tonight Daddy decided he could pull it. He pulled and it loosened. I messed with it and made it start gushing blood, so daddy finished it off. Hailey did NOT like this part. She screamed and held the rag in her mouth for like 5 minutes. Hey, it is out, and the tooth fairy gets to come. That is what matters, right?
