'All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth'

That's what's daddy is singing and what Papa will be singing when him and Nana come over in the beginning of December. It's not that long ago that the little man knocked his front tooth out. It was wobbly but not quite ready, the other front tooth most have been knocked too because it was getting more wobbly every day. Yesterday the little man had had enough and brave as he is, so much more brave than I am, he pulled it out and is now looking like this.... Cute isn't he??

One tooth less....

Out it came at school and I got a beaming smile when I picked up the little man. The tooth was lost in the sandpit though and 16 little 6 year olds and their teacher could not find it....

The Tooth Fairy!

The little man has lost his first tooth!

"All I want for Christmas is me 2 front teeth!"

Yep the second one fell out today (about time as it has been hanging in one tiny thread for a while) and the princess now looks like this.

By the way, she still got all her hair despite my concern yesterday at the Lucia party at school. All 29 children walked carefully and very proudly with their candles.

So concentrated she was that she forgot to sing (and smile) but so cute though!

Children and the toothbrush!

What is it that happens with our dear children when told to brush their teeth?? Last night the little man had a major tantrum when it was time to clean his little teeth. The toothbrush was too heavy for him, he didn't want anybody to look and on he went with the excuses. It took a looong time to get over the toothbrush tantrum but eventually he caved and whispered "sorry daddy". All smiles when he went to bed.
This morning he woke up the happiest little boy and actually had his teeth brushed only complaining a little. I reminded him about the tantrum and said that we won't have that again tonight will we?? He honestely didn't seem to care but nodded in agreement and continued to draw. He used to be fine and happily brushing his teeth but after he has turned 4 it's not done without an argument or a big tantrum.
But I must say with his looks he does get away with a lot...

Would you believe it....

.... another one fell out. Another tooth that is (in case you're wondering). Mormor (that's danish for grandma) came with me to the school to pick up the children today. Firstly we got the little man at nursery, and then went to get the princess. She (for whatever reason) thought that carrying her swimming bag with her mouth would be cool. Well, it resulted in losing another tooth! Lots of crying, but her fantastic teacher found a tiny little treasure chest with the words 'Tooth Saver' on it. Happiness was restored, and then replaced with pride.

Tooth Fairy and a dead mouse....

05.55am rise and shine mummy. Had the Tooth Fairy been?? She had indeed and a shiny coin had replaced the tooth. So really, no wonder an early waking up was in place. As for the little man, he just thought waking up nice and early would be fun!
Muffin the cat knocked on the door to the garden at 06.05am and with a smile (yes I am sure of the big smile) on her little face walked proudly past me inside. Closing the door I look outside. A dead mouse is laying right outside the door. That's why the big smile and proud walk. 06.10am the mouse is removed. Muffin wants to go out again not aware the mouse is now gone. About to go out she looks confused, then looks at me still confused, looks outside again and slowly walks out trying to find the mouse. As I close the door she looks at me with blame and walks off in protest of the missing mouse probably to go catch another one.

Lovely smile with all her teeth....

Still a lovely smile but with one front tooth missing!
