Exciting times here at the Lauckner's!
It all started just after we got home from our trip to Mexico. I was certain she would lose it at any hour that first day - I was recording video like crazy in anticipation - but we waited another two weeks before she finally lost the tooth.
Emotions ranged from excitement to fear each day as she would wiggle and wait for blood, and tactics from measured breathing to calling Daddy on FaceTime framed the experience.
Then finally while she was home sick from school with a double ear infection last week, she wiggled it free during nap time!
Here are some pictures from the past few weeks of birthing her first tooth. After all the emotional and physical coaching I did, I'm self-certifying myself as a Tooth Doula 😀
To celebrate we went out for ice cream and since losing this first tooth, she's been excitedly searching around her mouth ready to lose the next one.
Nothing says early elementary school quite like the excitement of wiggly baby teeth.
Congratulations, Bitsy Girl - you did it!
(And just for fun, a look back at Abigail's first tooth)
