Milestone: First Lost Tooth

Let's just pretend I haven't been missing for months...

This. Just. Happened.
The first loose and pulled tooth in the life of Hayley.

And I didn't fall out.

Y'all, I don't do teeth. I didn't do my own teeth. They would have to basically fall completely out on their own. Not even exaggerating.

So she's been quite content to gross me out for almost a week since she figured out it would wiggle and I would gag. Disgusting.

But today, today when her daddy was far away with no cell phone... it decided it was coming out. (Obviously she's her mama's child in getting her money's worth of the loose-ness)

And I pulled it. And she didn't melt down. And I didn't throw up or faint or both.

So its a win-win all around.

Except... how did she get old enough for this?

As I looked at her new gap I saw that the next tooth over already has a permanent tooth breaking through the gums, so looks like we are in the teeth season for real.

How did this happen so quickly?
