Avery's bottom tooth had been loose for weeks! Her goal was to lose it before her sixth birthday. One Sunday morning (June 14th to be exact!) it was literally hanging by a thread. Adam tried to pull it, but Avery freaked out. Then we went to church and had Mom Mom take a look at it. She said it was time for it to come out....right there in the church parking lot!
Here is a play by play of the event told through pictures...
Mom Mom and Aunt Lisa instantly opened their wallets to see what money they could give her!
Talk about easy money...She made six bucks on the spot!
Very thrilled with herself and super excited for the tooth fairy to FINALLY visit our house!
She put her tooth inside this little pink tooth holder that she got from MomMom a looonngg time ago and has just been waiting to use on this night.
She also wrote the tooth fairy a note... it read (or was supposed to read): "To the Tooth Fairy. If you do not know where my tooth is, it is in the pink tooth holder." And then she drew a lovely depiction of what she thinks the tooth fairy looks like...
She was thrilled that the tooth fairy not only wrote a note back to her, but also left her a new book (she is obsessed with the Berenstein Bears right now!) and also a five dollar bill.
Oh, but not just any five dollar bill....look closely, this one has fairy sparkle dust on it!
(oh yeah, this tooth fairy NAILED it!)
This was a hard milestone for Mommy to go through! With every passing day, Avery is getting more and more grown up and this is just another sign that time is just going too quickly.
Only BIG kids lose teeth...how is this possible?!?!
And as of July 27th, tooth #2 was gone! This time, one dollar and no fairy dust! ; )
