To the Dentist

Over the last couple of days, one of Hannah's lower teeth has been turning dark. It's the one tooth that the dental hygenist said was loose when she cleaned Hannah's teeth months ago.

When I took the girls to Urgent Care on Sunday for their eyes, I asked the Pediatrician about it and he suggested I take her to see our dentist. We were pretty sure that the tooth had died because of it being loose, but to be sure that was all it was, and because the Pediatrician suggested we go, Hannah saw the dentist today. And yes, her tooth is greying simply because her permanent tooth is pushing up and causing her baby tooth to die. He said it's only a matter of a few weeks and it'll be out.

Hannah is excited and already looking forward to money under her pillow for her tooth. We don't do the Tooth Fairy, but have told her that Mommy or Daddy will leave her money under her pillow in exchange for her tooth. LOL.

I'll be trying to take extra pictures in the weeks to come. Once that tooth is out, her smile will never look the same!
