The Tooth Fairy's First Visit

First Loose Tooth

Brayden had his first loose tooth on Sunday, February 22, 2010.  At first he was very scared and upset, but then became excited because he thinks he is going to be a grown-up soon!  I told him it was one of the first many steps to becoming a grown-up.

The Day Brayden Lost His First Tooth!

This morning (March 3, 2010) he woke up and his tooth was gone.  Britton and Brayden searched for his tooth and could not locate it anywhere.  We thought he had swallowed it throughout the night.  Brayden told his Grandma, "maybe it just walked away."  When I spoke with him he said, "I think I swallowed my tooth, but it's ok, I'll just pee it out."  Where do these ideas come from?  I reassured him this would not happen and explained, if he did swallow his tooth, how it would come out of his body. 

The Night Before the Tooth Fairy Visits

Tonight, before bed, he put his tooth in a 'Tooth Saver' treasure box Ms. Cynthia gave him at school and placed it in his Tooth Fairy Pillow Mami made him.  He was excited about getting money in the morning!!  Britton told him the Tooth Fairy would come see him, but really it's just mommy and daddy - he didn't believe him - Yeah!!  I'm glad he believes the Tooth Fairy will visit him.
