A couple days before we left for Idaho, Soph told me she had a super wiggly tooth. I checked it, and it really was wiggly! I told her I had to take a picture of her with all her teeth before she started losing them! I have always told the kids stories of how Papa Arlen pulled out most of my teeth growing up. If Papa pulled out the tooth, the Tooth Fairy brought $5 instead of the usual $1. So Soph got it in her mind that she wanted to wait until Idaho and see if Papa could pull it out for her.
Thanksgiving - Sophie asked Papa if he could pull out her wiggly tooth. Papa grinned and was thrilled to do the honors! One pull later - she was toothless!
That tooth next to it was barely hanging on - every time she smiled, she would push it forward. Wouldn't you know it, one day later - Papa pulled out that other tooth!
The best part (to Sophie) about the whole story, was that the Tooth Fairy brought her a "twenty buck" for each tooth!!! She STILL talks about this every day! I think I may have a few teeth Papa can pull out! ;)
