A couple weeks before her tooth actually came out it started to get loose. She was insistent that she wanted to lose it at school so she got a cute tooth case from her teacher. As the weeks past it got looser and looser and then the one next to it also started to wiggle. It got to the point that I thought she would end up swallowing it while eating since it was so loose. She was anxious about letting us pull it and we encouraged but didn't want to make her terrified about having it out. On Sunday afternoon she came to me and asked to have it out. It popped right out and she was thrilled and of coarse wanted a picture to document it.
Later that night she also decided she wanted the other one out. When I started to pull it she freaked out but it was hanging by a thread so Matt held her down while I twisted it one last time then it was out! She cried for a couple minutes but then realized that the tooth fairy would be coming and would bring double the loot for double the teeth.
That night the tooth fairy forgot us but luckily the next night Hallie got lots of coins for her teeth. She was thrilled and I was happy we had done family pictures just a few weeks before so now we have a couple months for her teeth to come in so she doesn't have the huge gap. She has been slightly frustrated that she has some trouble eating certain foods...mainly corn on the cob.
