{outta there}

Ash used to be able to eat corn on the cob.

She also used to be able to take a bite of a nice crunchy apple.

now...not so much.

Her fron 2 teeth have been bouncing around in her mouth for a few weeks.

until Sunday.

Jake got dental floss and tore the first of those babies out. 

there was a ton of blood, but no pain.

We all couldn't get enough of her darling new smile.

{except one of us}

Tate was HORRIFIED by the entire experience. 

He kept his lips tightly pursed

{with an award winning scowl}

The next morning Ashlinn's other front tooth was dangling sideways in her mouth.

{it was time}

She was thrilled about her new gummy smile.

{this day also happened to be the first day of school}

What a way to start 2nd grade!
