Paisley lost her 1st tooth

Paisley lost her first tooth this morning. She actually pulled it out herself. It was SO loose that she was afraid to eat anything and it was making her very nervous (not to mention mama's fear that she'd lose it at school or swallow it, and then we wouldn't have it for the Tooth Fairy! So thankfully, Paisley (very bravely) pulled it out herself before she went to school.

It was a BIG deal! There was a lot of excitement in our household.
We immediately pulled out a book we have about the tooth fairy and read it so we'd know what to expect. (Her tooth was so loose that I had gone out and purchased a book for the big moment.) In the book, the little girl, Holly, is very inquisitive to the tooth fairy and writes her letters, so Paisley wanted to write a letter and ask her a couple of questions too. You can see her letter to the TF below. She asked if she could keep her tooth for her baby book and what color was her hair?That night, we put her tooth in her tooth fairy pillow and set the note out next to it for the TF to find. We also set out a glass of clear water because we'd heard that the TF will dip her wings in it and you can see what color they are. Our TF had pink wings as you can see. Some of her pixie dust got in the water as well. But we were most excited that the TF left us a certificate for losing her first tooth, a letter for our keepsake album, five gold dollar coins and a silver dollar with pink glitter all over it. The silver dollar was the biggest hit!! It was such an exciting morning to wake up and see what had arrived in the night. There was even pixie dust sprinkled all over her nightstand and windowsill (not sure if you can tell that from the pictures).

And yes, she left Paisley's first tooth tooth for her baby book! Thank you Tooth Fairy!!
