Toothless!

It's been coming for a few weeks now....There was the twisting, turning, and tongue-pushing.  Then there was the apple-eating, candy chewing, and gum-smacking.  And finally, there were Daddy's fly-fishing forceps:

Paige has finally lost her first tooth!  She has been talking about it now for months, and she was so excited!  Her first reaction when Dave pulled it was to start crying, but then when I forced her to look in the mirror, she started laughing hysterically.  She threw herself a party tonight, complete with jumping on the bed and dancing around with her stuffed animals.

And, naturally, kindergarten pictures are tomorrow.  Good-bye, sweet baby teeth smiles!
