The Tooth Fairy Came for a Visit!

Whilst we were in Omaha enjoying a fabulous waterpark vacation in Julz's own backyard, her oldest, Olivia, lost her first tooth. Since that moment, Jack has been wiggling away at one of his teeth that may have been slightly loose at the onset of the trip, and now is gone. He lost his very first tooth on August 12.

Check out that gaping hole in his mouth! What kills me (besides the fact that he's now such a 'big kid') is that this little tooth caused so much pain and sleep deprivation coming in a mere 5 and 1/2 years ago. And now it's just gone, just like that. Sigh.

Our tooth fairy left 2 bucks and some baseball cards. She really wanted to leave some Chuck-E-Cheese tokens because they're gold, and the kid would find them totally cool. Oh well. The experience did get me interested in the history of the tooth fairy, and though there's not much out there I did find this:

I think the Santa Clause 3 explains it all anyways.
