Seriously. Maybe I should put up a Paypal account or something. Dayum Tooth Fairy.

Meelie No lost one tooth over vacation. She lost another one last night. THERE ARE FOUR MORE LOOSE TEETH IN HER MOUTH AS I TYPE! One of them is laying flat so that when she closes her mouth, you can see the tip sticking out, no joke. Chickie lost a tooth last night as well, and has another one about ready to come out.

I can't stand loose teeth. I can't stand looking at them wiggle. I can't stand watching them be pulled. By God I'll change a blown out diaper or clean up after a child that has emptied the entire contents of her stomach on my living room rug (hey that's better than saying vomit or up-chuck don't you think?), but please, don't make me pull out your tooth.

My husband is evil. He has a massive presence in my children's lives and it shows. They love to taunt me. "Look Mom...wiggle, wiggle, wiggle." Sometimes, we'll all be watching TV and he'll signal one of the girls to come over and lay their head in his lap to check the status of teeth. "Whoa sweetie...it looks like it's almost time to rip this sucker out! Look how loose it is Mom!"

My bank account is dwindling. If things keep going this way, I’ll be lucky to make the mortgage payment. Of course, by the time that happens, I'll probably be living out the rest of my days at Rolling Hill Meadows, gumming Zwieback and sipping Ensure.

The tooth on the left, which is sort of sticking out of her lips, and the one next to it are now gone. Click on picture for a larger image.
