Where do These Teeth Go?

The mystery remains as my children keep losing their teeth as to what the Tooth Fairy does with all of these teeth? How does she afford to keep paying children for their teeth especially with the exchange rate being so much out of our favor over here? This picture was last night and it appeared she only had one front tooth since this left one decided to creep to the right as it wiggled its way to freedom from her gums.

R has lost his teeth just a tad later than normal and J's timing is slightly early, which results in them losing teeth all at the same time. Now they are both without two front teeth since J ran into our room early this morning showing her lost tooth. R's are slowly coming in - and they appear straight - hopefully braces will not be in the future. We'll have to keep an eye on J's to see if crooked teeth are moving in. As for now, we'll listen to the whistles and silly 's' sounds for a few more months until the true sign of them growing up begins with permanent teeth!

oh my goodness. how do they eat?!? I didn't remember that they all fall out at the same time. isn't it a strange milestone that we lose our teeth to get new ones?!?
