I know, right now you’re thinking to yourself that LaLaGirl has become All Loose Teeth, All The Time. Not another post about a lost tooth! But what can I say? I have a lot of kids. They have a lot of teeth. And this one was a MILESTONE tooth – look at the size of that gap!

Up Close - Mallory awaiting the tooth fairy!

Mallory had one of her front teeth come out a few days ago. It didn’t come out on its own, though – nope! Mama had to rip that sucker right out of her skull. At least, that’s what you’d think I did, based on her reaction! So many tears, so much drama. Her tooth was dangling by a thread, and flapping around in her mouth so much, I was afraid it would fall out during the night and she’d choke on it. She was starting to become pretty bothered by it as well, and finally asked me to pull it for her. It came out SO easy, but it bled quite a bit, which freaked her out. The tooth fairy brought her THREE BUCKS for all the trouble it caused her.

But look how cute she is! I love little kids with gap-toothed smiles! One of my favorite, framed pictures of Kayley is her smiling, toothless, 6-year-old face. I have it in black and white, hanging up in the dining room. Now we’re just waiting on the one next to it! It’s pretty loose, too. I anticipate we’ll have more crying, drama, and whistling S sounds in our house, very soon.
