Haylie has this infatuation with pulling teeth. (Which completely baffles me being as how I can't stand to pull teeth and I don't like anything about it.) Whenever her tooth gets even a little bit loose she works it and works it until she finally gets it out. The last tooth she pulled was the front top tooth. She messed with it until it was hanging sideways and in the middle of her gum. I told her she looked like Nanny McPhee. She pulled on it, pushed on it, twisted it, and it still wouldn't come out. Finally she looked at me and said "Mom, I can't get it...do you have any pliers?" I assured her that I didn't have any pliers and that she would have to wait for her dad. While she was waiting for Shane to come in the house she decided to try to eat a milk dud being as how Brody lost his tooth in a milk dud once. 6-7 milk "dugs" later her tooth was still in place and she was getting a little testy. Shane came in just at the right time. He tied some fishing line to her tooth and she went into the bathroom and pulled it out. She was so excited. (So was I because this meant I didn't have to pull it!) I can't believe she lost all her front teeth within just a few days. She looks pretty darn cute with her toothless smile.
Her bottom teeth are finally growing back in just a little bit.
While Haylie has been busy pulling teeth...Brody has been busy growing his hair out. This has really tickled Haylie because it means she has someone to try out her mad hair skills on. One night at dinner Haylie decided that Brody needed some style. While she waited for her dinner to get dished up she "worked her magic" and this is what she came up with.
3 Random ponies.
Brody a little embarrassed.
I'm not quite sure that I love this style but she did pretty good for her first attempt.
