Hello Tooth Fairy!

The news is in and it's BIG! We have tooth! It's got to be a tooth unless my baby is half baby half T-Rex cuz that thing is sharp! Do T-Rexs' have sharp bottom teeth? I assume they do.
Good thing I no longer BF because I would probably not have nipples if I was.

It began one cranky runny nosed Thursday last week. Me getting over a cold and my husband getting over a stomach bug I figured Miss E had unfortunately got a cold from my snotty hands. I washed and washed, but you know it's hard to wash your hands 24/7 when lil' bebe starts a callin'.

She was one big crabby bebe beetch. Sorry E, but you were. I mean it was an awful day for us both. I felt like crap and so did you so we weren't very good company. But I held you all day and you slept for the most part and were so sweet snuggled up to Momma. The following days got better and I never thought to look in your mouth. You didn't have a fever just cranky and a slight runny nose and dirty diaper. I should have known.

Fast Forward to Valentine's weekend and I was getting her ready for bed at Grammy's and G Orr's. She was talking to me. She said, "Momma, I had a lovely day and I'm ready for bed but this shard of glass in my gums hurts." So I felt around on the top of her bebe gums. There was the shard of glass (ok, it was the tip of a tooth). I told her I could not take it out but it would be better soon and then someday the tooth fairy will bring her money for her bebe teeth when she gets her big teeth like Momma. That freaked her out. She said, "Someone called a fairy comes and takes my teeth and gives me money for it? Do we live in a third world country?" I said, "No, we live in Texas and here in Texas your little bebe teeth fall out and you grow big adult teeth so that you can gnaw on jerky, chew tobacky and whistle for your lil' doggies. And the fairy brings you monies for these lil' bebe teeth so you can buy the jerky and tobacky."

My little girl is growing up.

All I can hope for is that she doesn't read this blog and think I condone the use of tobacky because I hate it when I see little girls spittin' tobacky juice.
