Ella lost the top tooth, finally

For WEEKS upon weeks, Ella has been wiggling her left top front tooth. Delightful to watch. (Not.) It has bothered her a lot in the last week or so; she's been finding it hard to eat. I have been sympathetic.

Interestingly, Madison lost her RIGHT front tooth first, at about the same age.

Deb's upstairs with her now, I just left them. Ella's happily asleep...maybe Deb too.
