Ok mammas! What do you do with your little ones teeth after the 'tooth fairy' comes and picks them up? Do you keep them, throw them away?? I was cleaning off my desk tonight (packing) and found 3 teeth, lol...part of me wants to keep them for memories and my DH thinks I am crazy for keeping a bag of teeth haha!!

I toss them. I know for a fact that your child is never going to have any interest in them when they're older, because my MIL has all of my DH's teeth (STILL!!!), and both he and I think it's SUPER creepy! lol

We don't do the tooth fairy thing and we toss them. My mom kept our teeth and hair from first haircuts and I thougt it was weird.

LOL, I don't keep every tooth, that would be creepy! I have kept one baby tooth from each child, and that is it I also did keep a tiny piece of hair from my little ones very first hair cut when they were babies for the memories book, I don't see a problem with the hair and one tooth, but not keeping a mouth full lol!

I have a problem with teeth--they gross me out, even more when they are still in dangling, flopping put like a trapdoor, twirling around--UGH!!! (((shudder))) Lunch room duty and lost teeth are the two personal issues with teaching little kids! Lunch duty is the worst!
My oldest kids had to have all of their baby teeth capped due to a genetic condition they inherited from their dad (dentino genesis imperfecta), anyway DH currently has a stash of all of the missing teeth (complete with their caps) at work. I wanted to throw them away and he wanted to keep them and teased that they were worth money. Unfortunately the $183 per tooth is non refundable! He jokes about it being his savings fund--what a goofball.
I also kept the hair from the first haircut and loved looking at my baby book as a kid with my baby hair. It was also fun to compare the color of my hair when I was a baby to my own children.
