Two things going on here. Merrilee's two front teeth are STILL loose after about six months. Her left one has been hanging lower than the other, and it makes me crazy to look at it. I wish the darned thing would fall out already! I've always had this obsession about kids losing their front teeth; I think those are the ugliest months of a kids' life when those new, misproportioned adult teeth come in and the kid looks so weird. I hate my own pictures of that milestone and I've dreaded the day my own kids have to look so ugly. My sister is the only person I know who didn't look yucky during those "teething" years.
Anyway, the tooth is what caught my attention and made me take the photos while she was relaying a story to me. But I love her nutty expressions while she's telling a story. You really can't capture them on video the way you can in a still photo. Not all the photos came out clear and sharp, but I was glad to get what I got.

Looks just like her telling one of her stories! I love how you captured her joy at being able to share with you.
You may need to try the doorknob and string to put YOU out of your misery. Temporarily, of course, since the new ones will follow.
The half-way point may be crazy, but I love their sweet little lisp after they lose both top teeth! I wish it would last longer!
She is such a big girl!

I love series "still" photos...tells a story all on it's own.
Ahhhh... the many beautiful faces of Merilee!
