I kept all my kids baby teeth also.   They are in an envelope in a box with other things like a lock of hair from their first haircut.  Kind of funny now when I look at the hair because it was such a different color then than now but I don't find it gross at all.

With DD I did the tooth fairy for all her baby teeth.  It was just a dollar each.  I didn't realize that the first one was more expensive.

DS is a whole different person!  DD explained the tooth fairy to him when he lost his first tooth.   She was all excited for him.  He just thought it was the creepiest thing he had ever heard!  He asked if he could just hand it to me and not have the strange person come into his room at night when he was asleep.  So after that he would just bring the tooth to me after it fell out.

and I don't think it is because it wasn't enough money either.  He made that decision before he knew what amount it would have been.

yeah, I also didn't save hair from their first haircut.....I'm thinking that when you (general you) die and your kids are cleaning out your things, they're going to toss those teeth and hair without a second thought.

In my case, you'd be absolutely right. My mother had some of my teeth in her jewelry box, where she got them from I have no idea as I lived with my dad, not her. They hit the trash. The hair is still around and in my baby book, wherever that is. I was a hairy little beast as a baby so it is interesting to me.

My DH has some of our first cat's teeth since he accidentally hit her in the mouth and they fell out. He was hoping to get the teeth of the 2 cats that had to some removed but kept forgetting to ask the vet and I wasn't going to remind him. Doesn't gross me out, just one last thing to have to chuck after I bump him off and sell everything we own and move.

I used to get silver half dollars. Still have them too. Somewhere. My cousin pays her kids about $5 bucks a tooth. JFC!!!
