Mission Accomplished

Halle had a big weekend. She was on a mission to get her loose tooth out.
While Mark and I were canning meat (you can see it all in the background of the next picture) she kept coming in the kitchen telling us she was making progress.
Finally she asked Mark to just try once:




It was a good pull and we had success. She has pulled her other 2 teeth out herself but she wanted to make sure it came out that day because we were going to see Grandpa that night and he always gives them $1 for each tooth.
Here's the new fabulous smile:

How cool ! Jono should be about ready to start losing some teeth. Seems pretty harsh ... they just spent all these years growing those things in !! AND now they're all going to fall out !! :)

PS ... what is canning meat ?? I mean, I can assume the obvious. Do you cook it first ? What kind of meat ? How long can you keep it ?

Hahahaha! Now she is into the money! What a good grandpa!

I thought I saw some canned jars in a picture a few posts ago and wondered what you were canning. I love canned meat! What kind did you can?

She looks so cute! She had to show me her smile when she was here this afternoon.

How cute is she!! :)

Mmm.... That meat looks yummy!

I still feel guilty though for not being there.

Did you have to buy anymore jars? If you did let me know how much!

I love a toothless grin! She looks very cute!

Diane said...

Quite the entrepaneaur (sp?), isn't she?!

My mom used to can meat too but I've never done that before. What kind of meat is it?

Sadie said...

What a sweet smile! She looks so calm having her tooth pulled out!

Terri said...

She looks like a typical Kindergartner! That meat looks awfully good back there. Maybe I'll have to have some for supper tomorrow!

Isn't she the cutest thing? It is a funny time in their little lives to loose those teeth. My kids were always so afraid it was going to hurt, on every tooth! You would think after the first one they would know different, but not mine. Glad she was excited to get it out! Thanks for visiting my place. God Bless~
