The tooth fairy


We were starting to think Ellie might go to college without losing a tooth. Not because her age, but because she was looking like a shark -- her bottom two adult teeth had completely grown in behind her baby teeth. She wouldn't let us touch those wiggly teeth with a ten foot pole.


But, finally, the first one just popped out! She wasn't even expecting it and didn't even know at first that it happened. After losing the first, just a few days later, she gained a little confidence and popped the other one out. Phew!

Up to this point, Aubrie had also only lost a total of two teeth. So as soon as Ellie lost hers, Aubrie yanked and pried two of her teeth (that were barely loose) so she wouldn't be shown up by her little sis. All this competitiveness is causing the tooth fairy to feel a little broke!
