Well, lets just say my day didn't go as planned.
After having a not so good day what can happen next?
Mariella fell off our kitchen chair and all I saw was blood on my floor. I picked her up with a cloth to her face b/c I knew it was coming from that area. Before I knew exactly what was wrong I ran her over to my neighbor friend for a little help. We figured out that it was her tooth. I ran back to my house to check the floor and guess what I found in the puddle of the red stuff.....her TOOTH!
So to make a long story short we took her to a pediatric dentist and he said that the two teeth on each side of the one that fell out was loose. He said on a scale of 1-4 it was loose as a 3. I couldn't believe it. Now I have to go back in 10 days and watch these teeth carefully. We don't want them to loosen up more and fall out. Poor Ella! She even gave the dentist a kiss when she was finished! =)

I can realate.
Emma fell off the front step at age 3, like a domino, and ended up having to have a root canal to save her tooth.
It was a very traumatic experience! Emma, unlike Ella, did not give the dentist a kiss, but screamed and cried and puked (

Good luck with the teeth! Fortunately, they aren't the permanent ones and hopefully, the roots are doing well!

Poor Mommy and poor Mariella...

I hope she is well soon and that those teeth hold strong...

I hope the tooth fairy is hanging around spraying tooth fairy dust on your sweetypie chanting "stay in for now, stay in for now". (Maia and I talk a LOT about the tooth fairy these days)

I'm sorry you had such a traumatic day. Kissies to your sweetypie from us,

Krista,
Sorry to hear what happened to Ella. Hope all goes well and that she is feeling better. Melissa
