The Jones Girls

Savannah’s bottom tooth was so loose this past week that I knew at any given point it would come out.  I was so scared it would come out when she was sleeping and she would choke on it.

After I put everyone to bed tonight, Savannah got out of bed and told me that her loose tooth was bleeding.  I check it and the tooth was just hanging.   I knew tonight was the big night for her first tooth to come out. 

It was just as big of a night for her as it was for me.  I remember when that little tooth first came in.  What a huge milestone, my first born baby’s tooth that came in is now coming out.   ((sniff, sniff)).

We got lots of pictures and I video taped Savannah pulling her own tooth out of her mouth.   It was such a grown up thing for her to do all by herself.   She was really amazed and wonderous.

I have been talking to her about the tooth fairy.  All she could talk about after her tooth came out was that the tooth fairy would be coming tonight!!  I have a special little box for her tooth and we put it under her pillow.

I am just so full of tears right now.  There is no going back now….everything about my baby is no longer a baby…she is a girl now.
