Our little girl is growing!

The other big thing that happened this weekend was that Leah is no longer a little girl. She is a big girl now! She lost her first tooth, which means that she will not longer have baby teeth. We noticed she had a loose tooth several months ago and it has been a long time coming for her tooth to come out. Well, she was playing with her cousins after dinner and sucking on a lollipop and all of the sudden the cousins and Leah come up saying "Leah just lost her tooth!"...I was like wait, what? I take a look at my little princess with her tooth gone and I start to tear up. I know it silly but Leah is my first born and she will never look the same again. I am so happy that she is growing up and "maturing" but it made me sad to see her be so big. Of course she was very excited about the whole thing and the tooth fairy came that night. She woke me up the next morning with a toothless smile very happy with the tooth fairy "gift". Here is my toothless big girl... I LOVE HER!!!!



The proud parents

When Isaac lost his first tooth we were in a restaurant and I started tearing up too. My husband thought it was pretty funny that I would get so emotional, so I'm glad to hear that I am not the only one!

Karina was only in preschool when she lost her first 2 teeth at the same time. We didn't even know they were loose. She came in with an apple in her hand and 2 teeth sticking out of the apple. It freaked us out as novice parents. They do grow up fast!
