No More Snaggle Tooth!

Sienna's front tooth has been really wiggly for a few weeks now, but she hasn't let us try to pull it out.  Where is Aunt Tracy when we need her?!?   Her permanent tooth was starting to come in behind it, too. It looks like her mouth is growing which is creating spaces to get ready for her adult teeth to grow in (unlike Isabella's which are so crowded!).  She could make herself look like a beaver by putting her two middle teeth over her bottom lip.



Before...

  With a bribe of a bowl of ice cream and a lot of negotiation, Sienna finally let Mike pull her tooth out last night.  She can be just a tiny bit dramatic sometimes! 

Good-bye, snaggle tooth!



So proud!!

Sienna's little baby teeth are so funny because she used to grind her top teeth on her bottom front teeth when she was little. Thankfully, she has outgrown that habit, so her permanent teeth should be fine. She wrote the Tooth Fairy a cute letter. We've learned in the past that the Tooth Fairy who visits our house is named Petunia and her favorite color is periwinkle. There are many Tooth Fairies because there are so many kids who lose teeth that it's too big of a job for one fairy. Petunina is friends with Santa and E.A. Sterbunny (the Easter Bunny). Sienna wondered where the Tooth Fairy lived and she left Sienna a note saying that she lives near some of the other Tooth Fairies: Lily, Rose, Dahlia, Chrysanthemum and Zinnia! Sienna has happy to find her note and $1 next to her bed this morning! (Actually, she told me that she woke up at 4:00 and read the note then because she was so excited.) Silly girl!
