Floss and Pliers Please.

Little Miss lost a tooth. We are the proud parents of another toothless kid. First, we tried the floss, which didn't work. Then, Mat mentioned the sure fire way * PLIERS * to pull out Gretchen's tooth and as you can see from her reaction below, she wasn't having it.

However, Micah would do whatever it took to get HER tooth out, so she was all for the pliers. She wants so badly to have a gift from the Tooth Fairy. Unfortunately, she was not born with baby lateral incisors, so technically she HAS already lost two teeth and gets short changed on the Tooth Fairy collections.

Such freshness when the plant is pulled from the soil! Congratulations Gretchen. sympathies to her K5 class that heard her fabulous story over and over yesterday.

And, this one will just have to continue to wait.

ha ha, Micky, this is so cute. Ayslin just lost the same tooth on Thursday and I can already see her adult tooth coming in. We also did the floss thing and may have mentioned pliers too.
