Tooth #3 made it's way out of Kennedy's mouth on Halloween afternoon. It had been hanging there long enough so mommy kinda helped it out, BUT believe me it didn't need much help. Kennedy was grimmacing waiting for the pain and drama to follow and she didn't say ouch and looked at me with a look like, "oh I'm sorry mama that it didn't work, maybe next time!" But I just sat there waiting for her to stick her tongue through the new hole in her mouth and when she finally did her expression changed dramatically. And the coolest part, it didn't HURT which was what we had tried to tell her but she didn't believe us. I just held the tooth up in my hand and we did the happy tooth lost dance and jumped around and I picked her up...ahhhh to be a kid again :).
So Kennedy's tooth journal now has 3 whole pages to it. She writes in it everytime she looses a tooth (the first two came out last Septemeber 2008). She gets to write which tooth, the date, where she was, what time, who was around and she draws a picture. Something I hope to do with all the kids. This losing a tooth thing is HUGE, what a milestone. Glad the tooth fairy had cash this time instead of only her debit card...that's always hard!
