Our little girl is not so little any more! Hannah lost her first tooth about a week and a half ago! We had gone down to Chicago to Brian's parent's for the evening. Hannah's tooth was VERY loose when we got there (to the point where I couldn't even look at it - I get so grossed out by loose teeth!), but we didn't think too much of it. About 5 minutes after Brian and I headed out to dinner alone, Connie called with the news...Hannah's tooth had just come out...in her corn!!! Apparently she had taken one bite of her corn on the cob and lo and behold, her tooth decided to stay put after she took the corn out of her mouth! She was so proud, rushing right to the bathroom to check herself out! We were proud too!
When we returned from dinner, we carefully put the tooth (which was in a baggie) into my purse for safe keeping. We had to wait until Monday night to put it under her pillow for the tooth fairy to arrive and sadly, that afternoon, the tooth was lost again...this time in the car. I was driving with the kids and gave Hannah the baggie to look at, giving her strict instructions NOT to open the bag. And what did my daughter do? Naturally, she opened the bag and out came the tooth! I tried to retrieve it, to no avail. She was so distraught about missing out on the tooth fairy. I mean, DISTRAUGHT! So, I quickly told her that I thought the tooth fairy wouldn't mind if we wrote her a note explaining what happened. So, that's what we did and sure enough, it worked. The tooth fairy came in the night and left Hannah a wonderful donation to her piggy bank!
These pictures are from Connie, right after the big moment!
