Lost Tooth

The other day Gabby was watching out the window for Adam to come home from work. While awaiting his arrival, she tripped and hit her mouth on the end table in our living room. She got a bloody nose, knocked out her front tooth and swallowed it . The screaming lasted for a while, but when she finally calmed down and realized what had happened, she was very excited that the Tooth Fairy would be visiting her that night. Lydia has been very anxious to start loosing her own teeth and so greatly encouraged the celebrating of the lost tooth. Gabby loved all the attention. She now is very happy about the lost tooth, and tells every person that we come in contact with. She says "hey, remember that I have a loose tooth?" Then we have to explain what happened, and tell her that her tooth is not loose, but "lost".

She must have hit hard to loose a tooth - poor baby! At least you were able to distract her with money. What a girl! :)

She's so cute with her loose tooth. I'm glad that Lydia was able to help distract her. What a good sister.

Oh my goodness. Bless her heart. At least it ended happy. Claire still hasn't lost a tooth and is constantly asking if one is loose. Oh the waiting!
