Toothless Ryan

So our big girl Ryan lost her first tooth (and actually her second one week later). July 10, 2009 will be the milestone date that we will remember forever! Growing up Grace is what she is!!




The "model pose" at our special dinner

Can anyone guess the special restaurant we chose by this picture? Make a comment for this post to make your guess!

Calling all her "peeps"

Getting ready for the Tooth Fairy to visit! Aunt Ginny and Uncle Tim bought Ryan this Tooth holder when she was just a eensy baby and we have kept it in a safe place for 5 years waiting to use it! She loved it!

Picking just the right spot under the pillow.

Thank goodness the Tooth Fairy remembered to show up. I was a little nervous "she'd" forget sometime between bedtime and TiVO time! Phewww, what a relief! The second tooth, however, did not have such a punctual appearance from the Tooth Fairy! Bad Tooth Fairy... Ryan came in at 6:00 a.m. and said, "Mommy, is it morning yet?" I said, "Yes, come snuggle with me." And she replied, "But the tooth Fairy didn't come yet." And mommy quickly said, "Oh well, it's still nighttime for about another hour or so, why don't you try to go back to sleep." She tried. And in the meantime, mommy is pacing the room (cussing under her breath) figuring out what the darn Tooth Fairy was gonna do!" For the record, this is how the story went... the Tooth Fairy came and thought Ryan was awake so she didn't want to get the tooth from under the pillow and replace it with money because she didn't want Ryan to see her. So... she wrote Ryan a really nice card with money inside and put it under one of mommy's pillows because that is where Ryan sleeps sometimes. She also left mommy's window open (which is never open) so that must be how she got out! She promised in her card that she would come back the next night for the tooth when she was SURE Ryan was asleep. And she did remember to come back the next night, so all is well. Phewww!
Oh, but then Charlie put a note under her pillow the NEXT night for the tooth fairy and the Tooth Fairy had to remember to get that one too! Boy, Tooth Fairies work hard! I hope the Tooth Fairy gets a nice diamond gift of some sort for all her hard work! ;)

Good one Bubba... I don't know who "Woody" is exactly (LOL) but yes, Walt's Wharf was the fun destination! You sure know your Seal Beach restaurants!

Tyler lost his fourth tooth the other night (his first top tooth which was a big deal), and the tooth fairy almost forgot to come by our house, too! He would have been mad! The tooth fairy isn't allowed to take his teeth though. Tyler always writes a note telling her that she can't take the tooth, but she can leave money.
