I think it's been about 2 years since Nicole has lost a tooth, but we are happy to say she lost her 10th one! Her bottom tooth has been loose for some time now and was just being stubborn. We were at church service Sunday and it started bleeding really bad while we were sitting there and we had to run to the rest room. It didn't come out then, and we got the bleeding under control. She sat the whole time in church with a wad of tissue on her mouth.
Today, she had a 6 month dental appointment for her teeth cleaning. I asked the Doctor if it was loose enough for her to pull it. She said she would numb it up with gel and Nicole can pull it out herself. I'm not sure if Nicole quite understood what she meant because she never had her cheek and mouth numb before and was quite taken by that. The Dr. said since she(Dr.) is pulling it out, Nicole will have to split whatever the tooth fairy gives her. So if it's $1.00, the Dr. gets 50 cents. She did it so fast, Nicole didn't feel a thing.

What a brave girl! So how much did the tooth fairy leave? Just wondering how much teeth go for these days :-)
She almost didn't leave anything! But we found a Kung Fu Panda dvd wrapped up that fell under her bed.
