Emma looses her first tooth!

.... so, while we were at the beach about a week and a half ago, I noticed one of Emma's teeth looked like it had moved around. Well, it was actually in the process of loosening and falling out, so about 3 days ago, she started working on it:





.. and she was pretty dilligent about it, but she wouldn't push it back to kind of break the front attached part:




2 nights ago, she and Katie were "playing" in the living room while I was in the kitchen and I hear her freaking out b/c she's got blood all over her face and hands, and her tooth is hanging on by just a tiny bit of gum (she had hit it on her fish pillow - remember the Bass Pro blog a few weeks ago!) Anyway, while I was trying to clean her up in the kitchen, she gets brave and just pulls it out! There was blood everywhere, hence the Rocky III picture below ("Yo Adrianne"):





After clean up (and we are licking our lips again, by the way):




She is so excited about her lost tooth, and doesn't quite understand why her new tooth isn't there already!
