Have You Seen This Tooth?

Princess G lost another tooth today. It happened while she was eating her Honey Nut Cheerios, which is quite a coincidence because that's exactly what she was eating when she lost her first one. I can only conclude that the Tooth Fairy holds stock with General Mills.

So, the sequence of events today went like this: PG lost a tooth, I promptly put it in a plastic baggie and spent the rest of the day Spring Cleaning my kitchen. (Don't get too impressed. "Spring Cleaning" this year means I start a task, I make a mess, I get overwhelmed, and then I retreat to Facebook for the next 1-2 hours until I'm ready to peek back out at what I started. The process is repeated thru all hours of daylight until it's time to retreat to my sofa, and self medicate with-say it with me, my friends, kettle chips and wine.)

Anyway, come bedtime PG mentions that she's going to need to put the tooth under her pillow. I think to myself, "Oh, yes! Now where did I put that baggie?" I look around my tornado of a kitchen to no avail. I did have 2 happy moments when I found random plastic baggies which I hoped contained the tooth, but instead one held hair snips from Roo's first haircut, and the other held the dried up umbilical cord from one of my babies. I know- who keeps hair and dead uterine skin in their kitchen cabinets? I have no explanation for this, only a deep shame.

So basically, Princess G went to bed tonight without her newly lost tooth under her pillow. The only one happy about this was J, because now he doesn't have to fear the Tooth Fairy. But just in case she needs proof that a tooth was in fact, lost in this household today, here's a short (YAY!) video to prove it.

So, there you have it. Proof that a tooth was lost, although that's probably the last that anyone will see it.

Also, I'm once again astounded by how annoying I am on camera. Ugh. I do feel a little redeemed by the fact that I have cute kids. Until they start screeching. Or making comments about wanting to see blood. But what's to expect from children whose mother keeps dead umbilical cord remnants in the kitchen?

You all have a good night.
