The tooth fairy is coming, the tooth fairy is coming!



Collin finally lost his first tooth! And he pulled it himself! I have to admit watching him wiggle that thing around and seeing it dangling kind of made my stomach turn. It was so tiny I could hardly get a grip on it so his little fingers came in handy.I was so relieved it fell out before our dentist appointment in a few weeks. It wouldn't be any fun to have the dentist pull your first tooth!
As you can probably see there are two more coming in way behind it. Clearly we need to start saving for braces now! 

He was so excited and just kept saying "I can't believe I lost my first tooth". It was so stinking cute! 

How that tooth fairy finds that little tooth bag under his pillow without waking him is beyond me! What a silly idea putting it under your pillow. I think the tooth fairy may leave a note next time requesting he leave it on the kitchen counter. That seems like a much more logical place to me...I mean I'm no tooth fairy, but I just think it would be easier for all parties involved.

That silly fairly left a nice glittery one dollar bill and a Guatemalan coin after she took the tooth. I may request she shake the glitter off a little better next time because it was everywhere! Luckily we share the same philosophy (the tooth fairy and I) about what a tooth is worth. I think it's safe to assume that the tooth fairy probably has a stash of special Guatemalan coins used specifically to trade for little Guatemalan teeth...once again just a guess on my part.
