Amanda Lost Her First Tooth

Amanda lost her first tooth today...complete with the appropriate amount of celebration and pride. We knew she would lose the tooth not because it started getting loose, but because the new tooth started growing in behind it. As a matter of fact, for a while we thought we were going to have to let the dentist pull the tooth because the new one was growing in and the old one was not getting loose. Amanda finally started pulling on it and it started getting loose. Wednesday night Mommy "helped". Today, Amanda wiggled on it all day at school and this afternoon Mommy successfully extracted the first loose tooth. Tomorrow, Amanda gets to take it to school and they will give her a special box on a necklace to put the tooth in. This, of course, is all very exciting. One down and...how many to go?
