going, going, gone!

Hannah officially lost her first tooth last night!

Here she is a few days before the big event, if you look close you can see one of the bottom front teeth is definitely a little crooked.

I suspected she might start losing her teeth a tad on the early side.  After all, her first tooth made its appearance when she was only 3 months old:

Can’t see it but trust me, it was there!

Such a cute baby!  But anyways, I digress….

We could tell last night that the tooth was ready to come out, it was very loose.  I managed to talk her into letting me give it one more yank and out it came!  She said it only hurt for a second “just like a shot, mom.”. 

And here it is, the money shot:

Hannah's first lost tooth!

Literally as that tooth cost us $2.

I mean, it cost the TOOTH FAIRY $2. 

She’ll totally pay us back. 

Here she is today, showing off the gap:

That other bottom tooth is looking awfully lonely down there – but since it’s loose I imagine it will be tucked away under her pillow very soon.

Goodness--and after all that teething work, the Tooth Fairy stuff begins...

I can't wait for our first!

Sherrie said...

YEAH for Hannah! She's such a big girl now! LOL! :)

Laura Marchant said...

My daughter is terrified that this will happen to her, lol.

Unknown said...

How can she be old enough to lose a tooth. Stop growing this instant Hannah!

Three Js said...

The kids are growing up too fast! Yet another milestone for miss H :)

Heather B. said...

I am absolutely amazed at this!!! Go Hannah!!! Connor got his 1st tooth at 4 months and is almost 7 and hasn't lost any!!!

Evonne said...

Yay for Hannah!

So is that the going rate for teeth now? I suspect my son should start pretty soon. Inflation stinks!

Cassie said...

Can I just tell you that I am scared of wiggly teeth? I mean, not scared, but they freak me out. I'd rather change a thousand poopy diapers than pull one tooth out of a kid's mouth.

Helene said...

Congrats to Hannah!!!! It's such a huge milestone!! Can you believe Bella has already lost 8 teeth??? And she'll turn 6 next week!! Cole hasn't lost any, much to his disappointment.

She is growing up so fast! She's a little girl rather than a toddler! Oh my!

Connie said...

What a milestone!!

Congrats Hannah!

HeatherOz said...

Aw, YAY!!
The first of many lost teeth. All 3 of my older kids are losing teeth right and left! The Tooth Fairy is going to go broke!

Rebecca Jo said...

She had teeth at 3 months old????? Holy cow!!!

I love little smiles with missing teeth... let me clarify - on LITTLE KIDS... if I were to smile with missing teeth = not so cute!

The Blonde Duck said...

I only got a quarter!

Jenny said...

Oh, man, this picture took me back! Sweet, sweet moments.

She looks so exactly like her baby pictures. She is a total little doll.

Thanks for the smile.

Amy said...

Oh congrats to her.. Thanks for my well wishes..

Awww... so cute! Hopefully you will have better luck with her teeth than I had with my daughter's. Hers were in her mouth so strong that we had to literally have her put under to pull her baby teeth out because her permanent ones were growing in behind the baby teeth. It was crazy! :o)

Twincerely,Olga said...

how sweet!!!! she making money now!!LOL!!!

wife.mom.nurse said...

yeah!

such a fun thing.

She looks proud.

I used to put U.S. money and foreign coins under their pillows so that they could not try to compare what they got with their friends :)

she was a darling baby and is such a pretty little girl :)

The saddest thing about losing teeth? It seems to happen in spurts - my poor kids are always bringing me teeth and asking the tooth fairy for money. She's starting to feel very poor herself. Love that shot of her as a baby! So Precious!

Brittany and Charlie-Social Butterfly said...

Oh what fun! Congrats to her:)

Molly said...

so cute, I'll bet that other one goes soon. My son had his teeth at 3 months too!!!

The Blonde Duck said...

Thanks for the b-day wishes!

James (SeattleDad) said...

I was wondering what a tooth went for these days.

tattytiara said...

It's gone up to two bucks a tooth these days? I'm gonna need a calculator and some pliers.

yonca said...

Congrats to your sweet daughter! Aria's first tooth cost us $5. When his tooth was wiggly, he was praying for the tooth fairy to bring him $5 to buy a wallet and of course tooth fairy heard him:)
Lovely pics!

Roxy said...

crazy! love the picture comparsions!

and you my friend are looking SASSY in the photo!

FranticMommy said...

Love those moments! Our son "ate" his first lost tooth. We promised him the Tooth Fairy would "take his word for it". ;)

2Wired2Tired said...

Yay Hannah! She looks so proud! Love the then and now pics, too cute! I hope she was very excited about the Tooth Fairy!

By the way, I also wanted to say thanks so much for your comment about blogging time management on my blog last week. Other readers loved it and it made my Thank A Reader Thursday post today. Congrats and Happy Thursday!

Her little gap is adorable!
