Behind The Awkwardness: Tooth Fairy
March 2nd, 2011
“Picture of me 5 months old on Halloween. My parents dressed me as the tooth fairy and hung me from the plant holder that hung from the ceiling by the front door.”

This is the favorite photo I’ve found on this website–they used their daughter as a halloween prop. I hope trick or treaters could see her when the knocked on the door.
Cute!!! Is it to late to file charges???
This is so cute and funny! Awesome!
Danger aside, you’re adorable, Megan!
Can someone explain that thing plastered to her head?
A fairy crown, of course!
MAN, I’m glad you explained that!!! I was just trying to figure out how someone was balancing that kid on a closed umbrella!!!
OMG that’s hilarious! and so cute
“You’ll regret it when I actually learn how to use this thing!!”
Hysterical! LOVE the toothbrush wand and the plant holder looks like it was made of macrame. My parents had one in the 70′s/early 80′s.
So adorable – and not at all awkward! Mainly just clever and funny and cute.
(If there were ever a photo I wanted to receive the “Young Me Now Me” treatment, it’s this one.)
What were your other costumes growing up?
Adorable. The look on her face says, “Are you guys sure you’re allowed to do this?”
Awkward would be if they forgot to take you down.
No, they took her down right after the last halloween party guest left…
I’m sorry, I just cannot quit laughing.
D’awww…
Great costume, especially the wand. The plant hanger not so much.
Great poster for Dentists’ offices! Maybe Tooth Fairy’s parents are dentists?
awww, so cute!!!
Absolutely cute.
Using a plant holder as Johnny Jump-Up? Genius. Finally the world will have a use for macramé
Megan, your parents ROCK!!!
Yes, definitely! I can hear them laughing as they stuff you into that macrame plant hanger. Love that you aren’t crying.
I wonder if Megan has nightmares to this day about falling… .
This is NOT awkward. THIS is hilarious.
That is seriously one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Your parents were AWESOME.
Haha @ Abe’s comment!
Cute and funny photo. Your parents had a good sense of humor
I LOVE it!!
This is a sweet picture – a little dangerous but sweet
I love this picture! You are adorable!
This is not awkward. This is ACE….this is what babies are forrrrr.
At 5 months, how many teeth did you even have?!?
That’s why she’s collecting the teeth!
At least they dressed you up as the tooth fairy. They did the same to me, but as a piñata!
Cute picture.
Reminds me of that baby crawling on the ceiling in “Trainspotting”
I got nothin’
A-freaking-dorable.
I agree, made me say aww
Gotta love the toothbrush wand…. LOL
pic isnt too terrible…but they way they hung u from the ceiling is hahaha
I’m glad your parents didn’t have a ceiling fan.
ha
WIN!
Best!
Yes, WIN!
That would have been awkwardness to explain to the hospital staff how you fell out…. But you looked cute doing it

Awkward — a little. Adorable — incredibly so!
The marriage of awkward, cute and clever has now been consummated.
