Loose tooth



We went for Makaila's bi-annual dentist check up. She actually said the words, "I like going to the dentist." after we left. But they give her a token for the toy machines in their office and they give out a free kids meal at a fun diner that Makaila enjoys getting their ice cream. Plus she likes getting a new toothbrush and this time they gave her berry floss. So who can blame her?

But the big news in this house is that we have 2 loose teeth! She is only 4 and we have both bottom teeth loose. I made a big deal about how big she is to have a loose tooth and she is just so excited about it. We've read some loosing teeth book and some that mention the tooth fairy, so it is exciting now to be happening to her. Plus I showed her the small pillow she has been using for her doll pillow is actually a pillow with a pocket for the tooth to put out for the tooth fairy. Now we'll see how Makaila's personality handles this. The dentist said it probably won't be out until after her birthday (2 months away), but if she follows her mother's history she will be single-focused and sit down and wiggle that tooth until it comes out. Hope the tooth fairy has cash on hand.
