1st lost tooth

Last week, Madisen lost her first tooth. This produced both much excitement and much sadness in our household. Madisen couldn't be more proud. She shows EVERYONE she meets and cannot quit talking about it.
Saige couldn't be more sad. "I wanted to lose a tooth today too! IT'S NOT FAIR"!
I have heard the phrase, it's not fair, more times this week than I have in my entire life combined.
She is right though, being a twin isn't fair. They have to share a birthday, a room, toys, books, clothes, friends, etc. However, they are still individuals and I am afraid the first lost tooth is only the beginning. We have many 'it's not fair' days ahead. Another day like this is coming soon because Madi is going to loose her 2nd tooth before Saige looses a first. She has another one that is barely hanging on!
But, we are excited for Madi. I can't believe how much older it makes her look-SO SAD! The tooth fairy came and I have to tell you that she was a bit disappointed. There must be a wide variety of tooth fairies out there because although she got a dollar, (much more than I got as a kid-inflation!) she informed me that her friend got $5 and a pack of gum.
Thanks alot Laurel!

Kids get so much money these days...what's the deal? I think a dollar is good! She is so cute with the missing tooth, and yes she does look so grown up. Can I just say she looks so much like her Grandma Martha? Wow!

Too cute.....My boys are 3 1/2 years apart and I still get the why does he get to do this, that's not fair comments. Your girls are so cute! Not a dull moment at your house! Don't worry eventually Sage will get to have a first before Madi.

Love those little girls. I was lucky enough to get to see that very loose tooth while I was there. Then the day I left her tooth came out. Saige will have plenty of opportunities to be first at things that Madi won't be first at. (I hope)

Oh no! Our babies are growing up! Cooper has also been asking me when he will lose a tooth. I'm not sure I'm ready to let him lose a tooth and grow up some more :(

Poor Saige!! We have lots of "it's not fair" moments around here. Madi does look cute with that little gap!
