This tooth has been loose for what feels like forever! It is her first tooth she got in as a baby, and the tooth behind it started coming in pushing her baby tooth to the side. We have been wiggling, brushing and wishing it would come out!
One night we took videos to send to Philip to work, begging him to let us put the Christmas tree up early this year. I thought incorporating the children was a nice touch. He sent a video back telling her if she pulled her tooth we could put the tree up. So they concocted trying to shoot it out with a Nerf gun. Which didn’t work.
Yesterday i took the kids to Target after school, got them icees, and while perusing the toy aisle, Ainsley plopped her tooth out in her little hand. She was so shocked and i was too!
She wanted to rush home and wake Daddy up to tell him (I’m not sure how much he appreciated that, but you’d have never known). She immediately put her tooth in her tooth fairy pillow Aunt Ellen and Nanny made her and stuck it under her big pillow.
New to how the tooth fairy works, i had to seek counsel from my wonderful momma friends. I was prepared with a shiny bill covered in pink glitter glue (thank goodness). And i convinced her to hang her pillow on her bedpost instead of directly under her head under her pillow where the tooth fairy might not be able to find it (even though she argued that the tooth fairy was so tiny she was sure she could find it anywhere).
When i woke her up in the morning she told me it was too early. And that the tooth fairy definitely didn’t come because i woke her up too early. Reluctantly she got out of bed and said “ok i guess I’ll check”. And there in her pillow was a pink sparkly five dollar bill. And her tooth was gone. Magic!
