tooth #4 finally made it's way out today. kaiya has been playing with this little loose tooth for awhile now. it makes me really nervous when she can push them out with her tongue and suck em' back in - so i pulled it out. somebody taught me a trick where you just twist the tooth to the side slightly so that's what i did and it popped right out. i can already see the tooth coming in underneath it! one of my fears was that we would have to wait forever for her adult teeth to come in because her teeth took awhile to come in originally, but they have come in very quickly...even quicker than some of the "typical" children we know! i guess you just never know what you're going to get in trisomy land... so now kaiya has a really big hole to stick her little tongue through - and there isn't any guard keeping the drool in so i guess kaiya will have to travel with a towel of some sort until the teeth grow in all the way. we'll also have to get her to the dentist b/c i don't know how her little mouth is going to hold all these big teeth!

I am sorry about you traveling down memory lane with her clothes earlier. But she is always dresses so cute so I am sure there is much to go through.
Yea, the tooth fairy comes again.
What about the puppy? do you still have it?
the puppy went home yesterday. it was very sad to see her go - i think she was sad to leave us too! we will definitely be getting ourselves a puppy in about a year or two. kaiya just loves them, and it's really amazing to watch how active she gets and how much she loves to play with dogs. i have been doing research on dogs that are good with kids and found a breed that they have used as therapy dogs because they are so docile. they're called mi-kis and they are very small dogs, which is good for kaiya. my brother has a big dog and while he is great with kaiya, he is a little too big for her and steps on her sometimes...she likes it though :)
