On New Years Eve, the girls were jumping on the bed with me. Zoe kept standing on me and then letting herself fall down. I was trying to do research for work, and would try to keep them in check as I was working (sometimes it's difficult being a work-at-home mom!). I should've drawn them to a stop because what happened next sucked! Zoe fell off the bed- and this kind of thing happens all the time- but this time fell staight on her front teeth!!
Oooh it was a mess. Lots of tears & blood. Lots of fear on my part.
We called the emergency dentist who suggested we have her in on Monday to make sure there was no permanent damage. Monday was 3 days away!! Zoe adapted quite well despite her injury. Mostly it was her parents who lacked adaptation.
Her appointment went off well. The dentist said her teeth may even heal themselves! The alternative is that they will fall out early, but she was optimistic.
But get this-- the morning of zoe's appointment I was getting Sophia up and saw her smile looked funny. Her two top front teeth were chipped! Falls & trips happen regularly with young ones and i have no idea when this happened.
What an interesting week. I'm thinking we'll laugh about this in the future.
