Ayla lost her second tooth today (that we’ve noticed anyway). She was all wound up around 7 pm and was playing in the yard with her yellow kong (which I finally freed from its frozen ice prison) and decided it would be great fun to run full force into the bushes which she then used as a sort of pillow to hang out in. Her own tree house perhaps?

Anyway, I was trying to get her to stay out of the bush (which was starting to look pretty bad after she launched herself into it about 5 or 6 times) and I was playing with the kong and noticed a little blood on it. Then I saw her tongue was also a little bloody and that the front canine (? the really pointy one out front) was missing and there’s just a hole there now. Unfortunately we didn’t find the tooth but you can’t keep them all I guess. Ayla wasn’t nearly as phased about this one as she was on Saturday when she lost the other tooth. Apparently she’s gotten used to the taste of her own blood…and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not lol.
