Another week, another tooth!
Liv LOVES having her teeth pulled. My girl will dramatically wail at the very possibility of falling on the sidewalk, but she’s super tough when it comes to losing teeth. We worked on tooth #2 for a few minutes. Wobbled it with our fingers, pulled on it with floss, then yanked away with a damp rag and there it was, a gigantic whole on the bottom gum for tongue and straw alike to fill.
I love the visually awkward stage that I know is coming. Sweet baby teeth are filled with giant adult ones that don’t quite fit small heads. For years kids look kinda silly, but I think they are adorably cute. Bring on the big teeth!

Losing teeth makes me a little squeamish. That said, Drew got his teeth very, very late and none of his are even remotely loose and he’s 5 1/2. Yay.

Crazy-eyed? YES! So funny, but I love it! And like Moriah’s son, Calvin, at almost 6 doesn’t seem close to having any loose teeth. I’m a little concerned that he’s going to seriously freak out when that day comes…
Has the tooth fairy been visiting? :)

awesome – she’s in for years of joy. (just don’t tell her what kidneys go for.)
