New Smile

For quite a few weeks, Leah had a very wiggly tooth that she was SUPER excited to lose. Unfortunately, she has witnessed several of her dramatic big brother's teeth pulling episodes and thought there must be something to fear about losing teeth. A few nights in a row involved her eagerly asking Daddy to pull the tooth, giving him a few tries, and then crying hysterically because she was afraid is was going to hurt too much.



It only took the peer pressure of her big brother and one of her best friends to finally get the job done! Being that it was in the middle of the day and Tyler wasn't home, I had to do the honor of pulling it out (which is something I truly get grossed out by). It only took one little tug, though, because it had really been ready to come out for days!


And there it went, her very first tooth came out. It was an especially emotional moment for me because it wasn't just any tooth, but the tooth that we noticed in her mouth on the day she was born! That's right, she's one of those very unique kids who was born with what they call a "milk tooth".
