Offspring #1 lost his first tooth yesterday with decidedly less drama than we had anticipated. He was playing Playstation and it "just fell out"! He dashed into the house to tell me the news and has had the cutest lisp since.
The Tooth Fairy visited last night and exchanged a $2 coin for the tooth so there was further excitement this morning. Apparently a number of kids in his class have received $5 from the Tooth Fairy but she obviously felt that was a bit rich for this household.
Now we're waiting for the next loose tooth to fall out. He's got two more wobbly ones at the moment but I'm hoping they don't all fall out at once - the poor kids won't be able to speak or eat!

Your (oldest) baby is growing up! Gee, in my day we were lucky to get 20c from the Tooth Fairy. I guess one shouldn't complain about the $2-$5 thing - I bet there are kids out there who receive $20!
LOL Melody. I used to get 20c too. #1 was talking about a kid in his class who reckons she lost four teeth at once and got $100 - without calling her a big fat liar I gently pointed out to #1 that the kid's story might not be all that reliable!
