update on "The Teeth"
We just got back from the dentist. It was informative...He said that he will have to pull the bottom tooth that got broken, since the nerve is exposed. So that will not be fun. The top tooth that is bent will heal itself, as long as we keep her "off of it" for 3 weeks. That means absolutely NO biting. The roots are displaced from the bone, but he said they will go back as long as we leave it alone. So, all in all, I guess it was a little worse than we expected. But I'm very glad we decided to see the dentist instead of letting a broken tooth become an absess! Olivia was a very good girl and I told her I will make her mashed potatoes and chocolate pudding for supper!

Oh dear! I love the pictures of her "big lip!" :o) It reminds me of two things. 1. didn't Karla lose a tooth from an accident when she was little? 2. The picture Mom has of Daryl when he had a boil on his lip. Ha ha. I really love the pictures of the frost on the window. I miss that so much.
wow! poor kid... thanks for the pictures - the windows are beautiful and the mouth... pitiful.
Someone said something about your interesting household and you hadn't even written about your 24 hour rounds of "nursing" and "doctoring" Adrienne back to health, Sat. through Mon. I'm thankful for God's healing touch.
crazy kid! yes, i did lose two teeth when i was two...and didn't get the replacements until i was eight! hopefully olivia will have better luck.
Was Adrienne sick?
I have to get Zak to a dentist for a totally different reason. Just discovered that an adult tooth has come in but he hasn't lost any baby ones yet. It grew in behind. Now I'm having dreams about teeth growing on the OUTSIDE of their faces. Eeeek!
Yes, Adrienne has been sick too, which I forgot to mention in all the action of Olivia knocking her tooth out! A has thrown up about 7 times, but is definitely "on the mend". She has been very lethargic though, laying around a lot and just needing to be held. She threw up again this morning, after keeping supper and a bottle down last night. Strange.
I'm baaaack! :) Good to catch up this way.
Hi Robbie,
when does she have to get her tooth pulled? I had teeth pulled, and they are pretty little, so they should come out pretty easy. Hope it goes okay for you all.
Emma has learned to twirl lately, she likes that too, but she isn't as wild and crazy yet. :) Hope everyone heals up quickly :)
You have cold windows! But cool designs :)
Have a great week!
Where are you? Blog for us! I'm sure I'm not the only one who misses you!
