Teeth are disappearing!!

Isabelle started with a wobbly tooth, about a month before Kaelyn was born, in October. She was very excited and started planning what she was going to do with the money she received from the tooth fairy. The conversation went something like this:

Isabelle: Mummy, guess what I am going to do with my tooth fairy money.
Me: I don't know, buy some new teeth?
Isabelle: No silly, if I get 60p, I am going to buy a garden, BUT if i get 70p I am going to buy a garden AND a dog!! (Slight explanation needed, Isabelle said she wanted a dog and was told that when we have a bigger house with a garden, we may consider it.)
Me: Well sweetheart, unfortunately, gardens and dogs are a few more pennies than that, but what a fantastic idea.

Anyway, her tooth came out the day before my due date, she was excited and we all hoped that maybe her sister would follow suit, unfortunately she waited another 3 days!! Needless to say, Isabelle was excited to get money from the tooth fairy and is growing some very fine adult teeth. She decided to spend the money on some chewing gum, as she is desperately wanting to try all things grown up. She is five going on fifteen, seriously! I cannot believe my baby is losing her teeth!

She has lost her bottom two front teeth within a couple of months of each other, so she was struggling to chew and talk for a while, luckily, the adult teeth have grown very quickly.
