First visit from the tooth fairey!

Its been a long summer & there is a lot to catch up on, but first is the excitement over the loss of Wytner's first (2) teeth! It was early morning on a Tuesday and I was rushing -trying to get the boys on the bus so she & I could get ready for therapy. I sat down to read her a book & realized that she was missing her front bottom tooth, the the second bottom tooth was barely hanging on. I freaked out for a second, checked her for signs of trauma -thinking she fell or hit her face...but saw nothing! I threw together a "to go" bag and made an emergency stop at her dentist on the way to therapy. She screamed as 3 of us held her down for x-rays (she has a GREAT dentist, we love her!) In the end...it was just TIME! Her teeth are all healthy, no trauma...she is just growing up (at 4 yrs old). We did hold her down & pull the other tooth that was hanging so she didnt swallow or choke on it (she did NOT like that)...The rest of the day we talked about it & the tooth fairey. Way to go Wynter!
