Toothy Tooth, Goldfish, and Modeling

Whoa...two posts in one week, I'm on a roll.  It's all about Millie today.  My baby lost her first tooth.  I will have no more babies to lose their first tooth.  I thought too much about that and I cried for an hour.  It might not be a big thing to most people but for me, big girl teeth signify the end of an era, big teeth just make kids look older and I don't like it, it makes me a little sad.

It has been wiggly for months.  About a week ago Matt tried to get it out with some dental floss and slamming the door...that didn't work.  We have all tried to yank it out.  Finally Nick got some tweezers and just pulled it out.  It went flying through the air, all bloody and gross and landed on his shirt, they both screamed and laughed.  It's a good thing it finally came out because as you can see, the the new big tooth is almost all the way grown in right behind it.  (she was so excited to go to school the next day and show her friends and teacher that she said she couldn't sleep all night)





Here is the new toothless girl with her 100's day poster that we made to celebrate the 100th day of school.  I  probably should have taken this picture in the morning instead of after school since she and all of her friends ate most of the fish off the poster by the end of the day.  Goldfish and glue, yummy.





And just because I think she is such a cutie pie, I wanted to post these pictures that my niece Ryley, took of her last summer that I just found while cleaning out my pictures folders.   One of her favorite things to do with her older nieces is to dress up and play model.

Love that cute Millie! If you are worried about her growing up those "model" pictures should be put away, they are a sure sign that she is growing up. She looks beautiful!!!
