Shark Tooth --> Lost Tooth

Addisyn has been waiting and waiting, watching her friends get gaps between their teeth... and then she grew an adult tooth, and still hadn't lost any baby teeth yet.  And then another adult tooth popped up...

We nicknamed them her "shark teeth" because she had two rows of teeth.  The dentist assured us this was okay, and encouraged her to wiggle the semi-loose ones out.  We wiggled, pulled, tugged, we even tried string, to no avail.

Then, one day at the zoo, Addisyn said "my mouth tastes bloody" so we stopped, and that little baby tooth was hanging straight outward by a thread.  We pulled it out right there on our way to the giraffes.  That tooth was so tiny out of her mouth.  Hard to believe she's had that tooth since she was Marissa's size.

So on the evening of October 19, 2013, Addisyn put her first lost tooth under her pillow for the tooth fairy.  The tooth fairy took that tooth to her tooth castle and left her a nice note and a crisp dollar bill.  It was nice of the tooth fairy to remind her to eat healthy and brush her teeth (*wink*).

The next morning she told me the tooth fairy is magical because she could fly through the window to get in and out of the house, and teeny-tiny so she could sneak under Addisyn's pillow.
