Tooth Fairy is goin' broke

Let me tell you, it's ALL ABOUT TEETH in our house lately. Hayden has been teething badly for over a week (not fun) and based on what the boy lets me see when I try to pry his mouth open he's got about 4-5 sharp-as-shark-teeth coming in at the same time. Poor boy. Poor mommy and daddy and sisters' ears.

But on to the main event. Amanda has lost 2 teeth in 3 days time. That's become her pattern. She usually loses teeth two at a time. But now - that mouth. YIKES! She kinda looks like a hockey player pre-dentures. It's cute, 'cause she's my kid. But if ever there will be an awkward stage of her life, this is it. Good thing she's got 150% self-esteem and 200% attitude... that ought to get her through it... that and the buck a tooth payout she's getting from the "tooth fairy".

{please excuse the picture - Amanda really didn't want her picture taken
- she claimed that it *hurts to smile* phfftt....whatever.}
