Child number 1’s third tooth came out today. I don’t want to throw a piece of her away but equally I don’t want to be THAT mum who keeps every tooth! 🦷 #toothfairy

Happy birthday to my firecracker first born. She’s been super poorly all week so it’s been very subdued birthday. Hoping we can celebrate over the weekend when the antibiotics have worked their magic! SIX? How did that happen!

My two year old calls toothpaste ‘tooth soap’ which is so cute, but not as cute as when he asks for a ‘banana in its packet’
