The First of about 20....

The big news at our house this week Hayleigh finally lost her first loose tooth. I was beginning to think it was never going to come out. It has been loose for months.

There is a story that behind loosing this tooth will definitely have to go in the scrapbook. On Monday, while at Laura's, Hayleigh was playing air hockey with Alex and she won. So being a good sport, Alex gave Hayleigh a hug. When he had her close enough he proceeded to stick his thumb in her mouth and pull her loose tooth out. I know she did expect that this would be how her tooth came, if anyone was going to be pulling it out it would have been her dad. Nonetheless, the tooth is now gone and the tooth fairy will be making a visit to our house tonight.

The tooth fairy has been doing some research and apparently the going rate for a tooth is $2. Whatever happened the quarter that I received or the dime that my dad talks about? What ever it may be she is going to need all the money she can get for those teeth because on Hayleigh's first ever trip to the dentist he was kind enough to tell us that she will probably need braces. Now I am not sure how they can tell when they are three that they will one day need braces, but I am sure hoping he was just feeding my a line of B.S!
