This last week Rylee had started asking me questions about having a loose tooth and became very curious about it. I didn't think much of her questioning until I looked in her mouth and noticed a big gap between her front teeth. I asked her to show me and very reluctantly she did. It was so loose, but she wouldn't let anyone touch it-- she is a HUGE wimp-- (I do mean that lovingly). Yesterday, Sean tried to coerce her into letting him pull it out by bribing her with a toy at the store, but she wouldn't budge on her decision to keep it in her mouth forever. This morning it was basically hanging by a thread, so we pulled it out. She was relieved when it was out, but it was quite the ordeal. Tayler was so proud of her that she made her a sweet little card. Rylee put her tooth in the special tooth box, only to loose it 5 minutes later. I hope the Tooth Fairy still exchanges an empty box for some money.

Here's my toothless Rylee
During Tay's Parent Teacher Conference (which Sean took her too due to my newest arrival) her teacher, Mrs. A* gave them a heads up that they would have to do a Diorama and turn it in. Well Sean didn't waste anytime and he and Tay started working on it these past few days. She picked a Dolphin to research for her project.

Here is the work in progress. They are hanging from fishing line to make the 3-D effect and notice the schools they are in, very creative babe.

They had a blast working on it together. Now I know who gets to do all the Science Fair projects with the kids. Good thing they have their Daddy! ( I am diggin the Pelican on top).

I first read your title and thought it was drama of a lost tooth... that would have been fitting, too! Did the tooth fairy find you Rylee- that is very exciting. Congrats on losing your first tooth!
Awesome job on the project Sean and Tayler!
Wow Rylee, a lost tooth, Lyssa will be jealous!! That's awesome! I hope the tooth fairy came even without the tooth!
Loving the diorama, we need to get Meg and Tay together since they both did projects on dolphins..great minds think alike!!!
Nice touch with the pelican on top!
Yeah for her first lost tooth! What is she going to buy with her money from the tooth fairy?
What an awesome dad and cool diorama!
PS I still do pictures just outdoors though. I will totally take them in the spring for you if you would like?
Yay Rylee!!!! You are getting so big!!
Love the diorama!!! Jared will get to do all of those since I don't have an artistic bone in my body!
I too was a baby about getting my teeth pulled when they were loose. There's a picture out there where I have chicken pox (on Halloween no less) and this totally loose tooth that I won't let anyone touch until it comes out on it's own accord. Silliness.
The diorama is awesome! Very realistic. And another dolphin thing...after my own heart!
Holy smokes how cool is that diorama! I'll have to show Carter, maybe it will make him more excited about being in 2nd grade.
Don't worry Riley we have a few wimps around our house too. But you look so cute with one less tooth!
