the tooth fairy came to my house last night and because i had to have my teeth pulled, alec said that the tooth fairy brings extra money. and she did!!!! can you believe that i got $7.00 for my two front teeth! my mom can't believe i got so much!
cricket went to the dentist yesterday just for a cleaning (and yes -- still no cavities!!! i mentioned that her front two teeth seemed to be getting darker. (i don't know if you remember that when she was 18 months old she fell in her stroller and caught herself with her teeth.) anyways -- they took x-rays and saw that her permanant teeth were having to grow behind the baby ones and that she had an infection (i think because the baby teeth were getting old and were not even close to becoming loose -- the roots had not even gotten smaller) and so it would be best to remove the teeth. the dentist said that we could set up an appointment or do it then. i said, "do it." so one numbing needle and two teeth extractions later she came home looking like this! after they got them out -- the dentist said that there was no way those teeth were ever going to come out by themselves!) she did wonderfully and there has been no problems with pain since. now it is up to her tongue and lips to push those permanant teeth into place. can you say braces?
on the way home i told her that since she did such a great job that she would get to decide what was for dinner. she decided that she wanted tea garden (a yummy chinese restaurant) and she did not want take-out, she wanted it live. she explained that she wanted to eat in the restaurant. so that's what we did. it cost as much as the dental proceedure cost -- but it was worth it!
i just can't stand it!! i thought she was cute before, but she is super cute now!!!!
