This baby tooth has been hanging around for a while.
Her permanent tooth has grown in and this one was still hanging around. It was loose, loose, loose but somehow stuck around. For a looooong time. After her last trip to the dentist she was told it wasn’t going to just fall out and if she didn’t pull it out they would do it for her on her next visit. Well, she didn’t care much, but she has a visit coming up so she finally started working on it. Nothing like the fear of getting a tooth pulled to get you motivated.
It certainly didn’t just fall out. She had to wiggle it and finally yank it out and it was a gusher!!! GROSSSS! Surprsingly, I do ok with blood. Weird, right? I don’t love it, but I kind of go in to panic mode and just hug on my girls and find tissues and treat any drop of blood like a crisis…..but I don’t vomit. Weird. If I see vomit or poo, look out, but blood I’m ok with….bizarre. Don’t mind B in the corner swaying and turning green and let’s hope he doesn’t faint. I suppose we all have our place in this wacky family.
Anyway, this was Annabelle’s victory and she yanked that little tooth out all on her own. It’s been a while since the tooth fairy has made an appearance. It’s about time.
