OUCH!

Taken 3 hours after the accident.

This morning was just like every other morning, except for the emergency visit to the dentist.  Let me back track.  We were getting ready to take Owen to school and Allie was begging me to let her wear these flip flops that were too big for her feet.  I didn't see the problem with it, and out the door we went.  Once we got to school, Owen went running down the hallway past the Nursery.  Allie started running too, but at the same time was trying to take her jacket off.  So with her hands basically tied behind her back in her jacket, she trips in those darn flip flops.  Everyone can imagine the next scene.  Allie face plants on the carpet.  Blood everywhere.  Allie crying, but for once not passing out.  Office personnel running out to assist and Owen starting to get worried.  Lucky for me two other moms that I know were able to escort Owen to his classroom, someone brought me a bag of ice and I was out the door and on my way to the dentist.  Dr. Brown, first time seeing him, was very nice.  The nurse who took care of us the whole time was amazing, she even gave me a hug.  Allie was a trouper!  They took an x-ray and found out that the permanent tooth isn't damaged.  But the front right tooth was very loose.  It had been knocked back and up.  We go back in two weeks and there is a 50% chance she'll lose the tooth.  She always wanted to be first at something with Owen.  Now she is!

I'm kind of starting to think that hanging out in our little group is bad for my children's front teeth.
