My Brave Toothless girl!

Today Anna had to have 5 teeth pulled! We thought they were only going to pull 3, and I thought she would be fine to go back to school afterwards. I was wrong! They pulled 5!!! He told me that baby teeth usually get loose because the roots start to breakdown. He said hers just weren’t doing that. He said they would have stayed forever if we let them. He decided to go ahead and take out the top 4 and 1 from the bottom. She has one on the bottom that is loose, and he let her keep it so that hopefully she can wiggle it out on her own!!

She let me snap one last picture of her (miniature) pearly whites before we went in the dentists office!

She was so brave! She didn’t even flinch. I had a hard time watching. I think it definitely hurt me worse than her! They said that if every patient was as wonderful as her, they would have an easy job. She was so sore afterward. She definitely could not have gone back to school. She laid around for a while on the couch, but got to feeling better pretty quickly. She enjoyed a LARGE frosty for lunch, and some soft chicken noodle soup for dinner.

She can’t wait to put all five teeth under her pillow and see what the tooth fairy brings!

We love you, you sweet little snagglepuss!

Oh Anna..you are so brave! I think you look adorable. I can't wait to show Kenzie this picture when she wakes up in the morning. :)
