And another one...

#2 is now gone!

I thought I would have some time

before the Tooth Fairy came again.

But I was wrong.

*Disclaimer*

It may or may not have to do with the fact

that he was biting Taylee's shirt and she

ripped it out of his mouth thus causing a loose tooth;

all while both were corralled in the Costco shopping cart.

Regardless,

a week later another tooth found it's way under his pillow!

We were having a picnic dinner on Friday night.

That little redneck tooth was sideways and hanging by a thread.

I couldn't handle it waving at me any longer when he spoke.

So I gave him the courage to give it a little tug.

And it easily came right out!!

So he rinsed out his mouth

(I didn't quite tell him how much blood there was!)

and showed it off!

After that, we played toothless baseball.

That is until Anden hit a line drive right SMACK into my mouth

resulting in a fat bloody lip for me.

Luckily it was a wiffle ball and not a baseball

or I would be toothless as well!

Me & Taylee's barbie ice pack are best friends nowadays!

Eventually we made our way inside and filled out the

Tooth Fairy Invoice.

I found this cute idea online.

It wasn't so cute when I realized the kid gets to

"request" whatever they want for payment.

Anden immediately unrolled his 26 ft mental scroll of "I want" ideas.

While I quickly reminded him this is NOT Santa Claus.

So after some coaching,

he narrowed it down from a new scooter

to a pack of gum.

(thanks to my brilliant cousin Lacie for that idea!)

So we filled it out and carefully placed it under his pillow!

(and yes that's a nighttime shot that I snagged before the Tooth Fairy whisked it away!) 

And TADA...

he came rushing down the stairs at 5:51 am (UGH!)

to inform me that he got exactly what he wanted!
