The Tooth Fairy Is Coming... Again!

M lost his third tooth!!! All three teeth M has lost have been from the center of the bottom row of teeth. I can tell already, now that the first two teeth have grown in, that he'll definitely need braces!!! Those poor teeth are all bunched together leaving the big adult teeth noplace to go as they arrive. Aww, the luxury of parenthood...

C is starting to complain about her teeth "hurting" and "falling out", though she doesn't have a loose tooth in the bunch! I think she wants to be just like her big (albiet by only 6 months) brother and get new teeth... That or she wants that $.50 that the tooth fairy brings!

Sorry folks... The tooth fairy is on a strict budget. Besides (as she so rightly reminded my husband), what is a 5 year old going to do with the money besides put it into the piggy bank?!?

$.50 cents!!!!! My son Joseph rakes in the cash when his teeth fall out. I think on his first tooth alone he made $50.00 Twenty from his aunt and uncle so of course mom and dad had to put twenty under the pillow and then grandma gave another ten. The kid has been trying to rip his teeth out ever since. lol

After the first one though $5.00 was the going rate.

Hey, I miss talking with you. I will find time this week to give you a call in the late afternoon your time. Glad you are all well.
