Aeryka Loses Her First Tooth (Finally!)

At the young age of 6 and 3/4, Aeryka has managed to finally lose her first tooth out of that tiny mouth of hers (though, for those of you that have had any verbal interactions with her, you know that big things come in small packages!). This thing was loose for over a month, and there was no shortage of wiggling and manipulating to try and get that tooth out. Finally, after noticing that the other tooth was starting to break through, Mommy did the brave thing and yanked it out (with permission, of course!). And, staying true to her personality, there was not a tear shed until her first sight of blood (with the tooth already out, mind you). Pictures of this triumphant event can be seen below!
