Sean's tooth

Last night Sean had a bad night. He kept falling and bumping into things. He ran into an open cabinet and cut his ear, he slipped on some unseen thing in the kitchen and bumped his head, he jammed his toe on a kitchen chair. The worst fall though was when he was playing with a big Tonka truck with Matthew and fell and bumped his tooth. He now has a big purple knot above the tooth! So we have a dentist appointment this morning.

This is one of the teeth that he nearly lost when he was a year old. He he fell outside the library and pushed his top teeth straight back towards the roof of his mouth. Thankfully the dentist was able to pull the teeth forward and push them back into their sockets. One tooth survived perfectly...it didn't darken and it didn't chip. The other tooth, however, didn't fare so well. it was chipped and a tad bit darker. That is the tooth that has the purple knot above it. (I'm sure I have told that story here before, but it seemed fitting to tell/retell it today.)



UPDATE:

The dentist took x-rays of his teeth and looked at his gums (which, by the way, looked much better when we got there than they did at home). She said his teeth are a little loose, but there's no damage to them. We just need to keep an eye out for any redness or swelling. He goes back in April for his regular 6 month check up, so they said they will do x-rays again. I feel much better now!



Here are some random pictures Hannah took with her camera:

Okay, well Hannah didn't take this one, Rebeckah did, but it was with Hannah's camera.

This is Hannah with her new hair cut....sort of....she has it pulled in a ponytail for basketball.
