Growing Pains

After a few weeks of playing with it, Chloe lost her first tooth tonight. She was so excited today when it was loose enough to move in a circle or in other words--hanging on by a thread. Tonight she had her Jazz/Tumbling class. She was playing with it all evening of course, like any kid would. She sneezed towards the end of class, while she was playing with it and pulled the tooth right out. I think the amount of blood scared her, I didn't think to warn her about that. But she was so proud of herself and eager to share and show the world the gap in her teeth.

Here is Aidan comforting Chloe over the loss of her tooth. It is not very often we catch the two of them cuddling with one another. They are usually too busy playing or Aidan is busy annoying Chloe by getting into her stuff. So we figured we'd better take the picture while we could.

She has decided that she is going to give the tooth to Santa Claus because the Tooth Fairy doesn't need any teeth. Pretty cute huh? I am thinking about getting a little bag for the tooth and hanging it on the tree. She can check the bag on Christmas morning to see what she gets. If anyone else has any ideas let me know!
