So it's happening, my baby's smile is going from that cute baby tooth smile to a big girl smile! She lost her first tooth.
Friday (May 13) we were watching TV in my bed while she snacked on Cheez-its. After finishing her snack she was messing with her teeth and very excitedly called for me to look, "my tooth is wiggly"! It was, it really was! We ran in to show dad and talked all about it. She told me she was excited to tell her friends at school, especially Olivia who had just recently lost a tooth also! My kiddo insisted that she wasn't going to eat all weekend because she was afraid it might come out before Monday and she wanted to show all her friends how wiggly the tooth was!
By Sunday morning she was tired of it...it was SUPER WIGGLY! She just wanted it out. Well, she got her wish as she was eating a nice plush donut! Out it came!
So, all in the time of a weekend, she got and lost her first wiggly tooth.
The Tooth Fairy dropped by too...that was as exciting as Christmas morning! Mom on the other hand, just a tad depressed since her baby really is growing up.
For reference, because I'll wonder years from now...it was her lower front tooth (the one on her left).

Soaps and Things
It's May. Already. This school year flew by and now my wee baby is almost finished with her preschool years. She's already enrolled in the same school she's at now for Kindergarten! Official school! I admit that neither of us is handling it well. She has anxiety about it and I'm not ready for my baby to have grown up that much.
She's anxious because she thinks the math will be hard; she's losing some friends that will no longer go to school with her; she's worried that she'll be in class all day; she's worried the teacher won't like her; she's worried the boys will be mean to her....she has a lot of worries, a trait I know I passed along.
Yesterday she got in trouble in child care for trying to kiss boys. *CRINGE* She's been getting in trouble for lots of little things at home, like not listening, or not paying attention. But our mornings have gotten much better! We work together on getting ready and out the door in time. I work on controlling my anger while she works on actually getting ready.
Today is the last day of library at school; I washed her nap time cot bedding for the last time this past weekend (no naps in Kindergarten); her preschool musical is next week and I've been hearing her sing and practice all week long; she has a final field trip to the police station next week that I'm debating going to; her last day of school party is nearing and I'll be there for that one.
We both had our hair cut; me about 12+ inches donated to Wigs for Kids; and she actually requested to get about 3-4" cut off. It looks really good too, still long and flowy, but clean and neat. This is the first time she's ever defined an amount she wanted cut since normally she frets over even a trim. Since she fears her hair falling in the toilet when she uses it, I guess it was motivation!
We made some soaps last weekend using melt & pour soap base, coloring and essential oils. The soaps turned out great and we had a blast making them. They smell great too.
