Snaggle Tooth

Sarah has lost her first tooth! It was super wiggly on Friday and I managed to coax it from its perch that night. She was very excited that the tooth fairy was going to come!

I put the tooth in the tooth box and we put it under her pillow that night. In the morning she was happy to see that the Tooth Fairy left her a gold John Adams dollar coin! Wow!

*sniff* This event has made me realize that she's growing up. I'm a little sad and very happy for her at the same time.

Update

Yeah, yeah - been a long time since I rock-n-rolled ad naseum. ;)

So, Sarah's been having some bloody noses lately with all this dry weather. She woke us up at 4:00 this morning with one. That was fun. She keeps asking me why she has them and all I can say is that I had them when I was a kid, too, and there ya go.

I think she's grown about 3 inches lately - and her feet and enormous! She's continuously hungry and has outgrown all her pants and dresses (length-wise). Had to get some new shoes, too.

Oh, big news - she has her first loose tooth! She is SO excited! Crazy ;) She's been telling everyone she meets. I'll have to dig out the Tooth Fairy box so she can put it under her pillow when the time comes. She's asked me how old I was when I lost my first tooth. I think I was six, but I can't really remember. She's proud that she is younger than I was. She's so silly.
