Laney Lost a Tooth

About 2 weeks ago Laney finally lost her first tooth. She has been so excited to loose some teeth and has been wiggling that bottom tooth forever it seems. So finally one Saturday when she was twisting it all around Ben tried to trick her and asked if he could feel it. Of course he tried to yank it out but the little bugger was too slippery. Laney screamed and Ben came in the bedroom laughing and said, "Now I know why my Dad always used a piece of paper towel to pull them out." After that Laney of course wouldn't let Ben "feel" her tooth anymore and Ben tried to talk me into pulling it out. I didn't think I had a problem with loose teeth but suddenly they just look so gross to me and now I suddenly understand how my Dad feels and why he never wanted to see my loose teeth when I was little.
So Ben kept bugging her to let him feel her tooth again. One time I heard Laney yell at the top of her lungs from her bedroom, "ONLY WITH ONE FINGER!!!!" hahaha
Well, Ben went downstairs to get in the shower and I was in the bedroom with Nyah. Suddenly I heard Laney running out to the bathroom and then running back to her room. But she didn't say anything so I figured she was okay. Then a couple of minutes later she comes in my room and flashes a tooth-less smile at me and tells me that her tooth fell out.

Nadja - "Did you pull it out?"
Laney - "I don't know"

What?? How can you not know if you pulled out your tooth. Anyway, then she told me that she had twisted it and suddenly it had come out. So now we have 2 toothless kids.

How fun! She looks darling with her gap in her mouth--I'm the tooth puller at our house because it grosses John out as well...way to go, Laney!

Its so funny because Kalven and Laney are only like 7 months apart, Kalven has lost like 6 teeth, yet he can't read at all like Laney. Laney is loving reading and can't keep her away from a book! So cute. Might just be boys and girls, they are so different. Tell Laney congrats and hope the tooth fairy came! :)

I wouldn't let him put both fingers in my mouth either! Not after that trickery! Ha ha!

Oh, I remember when my father would pull our teeth out, it was AWFUL! And shame on Ben for trying to take after our father...ha ha! Glad Laney was able to twist it out!

Hooray for her first lost tooth! So funny...I would always do to Jaden what Ben did with Laney. It only happens one time and then your kid will never just let you "Feel" it because they know you'll try yanking it out!
