Tanner's first lost tooth

The day that every kindergartner waits for finally arrived. Tanner FINALLY lost his first tooth.
He was so excited. He actually pulled it out himself. He said that his teacher told him to just twist and pull and so he did and if came right out.
He ran into my room first thing to show me. Then he went to rinse off the blood in the sink and lost it down the drain. He came back into my room completely heart broken. Luckily I was able to pull off some major mom magic, remove the catch from the drain and retrieve his tooth. He was so happy.
Seriously, this face? Complete joy
The boy and his tooth
I kinda love his toothless smile. So cute!
So we dug out his tooth box that I bought months ago in anticipation for this day.
He was so excited to use it. It's just a little wooden box, engraved with his name. But Tanner was so excited to put it under his pillow.
There's that darn tooth. Took forever to finally come out. 
Then last night, right before bed, there was a knock at the door. Tanner answered it only to find a package addressed to him. It was from the tooth fairy and was marked with an urgent delivery stamp.
Tanner opened it right away. 
Inside was a fairy door with a letter from the tooth fairy.
It was pretty cute. Tanner was so excited to finally have a fairy door. Bailey has one in her room that is mounted to the door. This door, however, is only delivered when a child loses a tooth. It opens a portal so the tooth fairy can come straight to his room.
He carefully place the door on his headboard above his pillow and put his tooth box under his pillow. And then he happily went to sleep. 
The tooth fairy brought him $5- because the first tooth is special. (The remaining teeth are only worth $1 each. lol) and the tooth fairy also brought him a lucky penny. 
Tanner was so excited in the morning. 
Here he is this morning, his tooth is gone and he is so happy.
He was also quite thrilled with his money and lucky penny. 
What a fun night for this boy. 
We love this crazy little guy. We love his imagination and all his crazy stories.
I love the magic that is so real in their world.
Tooth fairy magic is all part of the fun.
