Brave Buddy Pt. 2

So now we are headed to the dentist where they look and say that though they could try to save the tooth with a cap,since it was a baby tooth, they thought the best idea would be just to pull it...to which I asked if he would have a replacement tooth or teeth (pulling both they said might be best for symmetry and because both took quite a beating)and they said no. Well fast forward to the dentist telling kyle about laughing gas, and he is completely on board!! He let's them mess around in his mouth, and numb his lips and gums 4 times without so much as a peep all while he is smiling and happy watching bob the builder and sniffing his "happy gas." The dentists all came to see this wonderful 4 year old patient that is as calm as a cucumber...and then came the actual pulling and he didn't love that nearly as much only because afterwards they made him chew on big wads of gauze to soak up the blood and he said nothing hurt but that his lip felt funny and the gauze felt weird,and so he wasn't too keen about that but the second we got back in the car he was out like a light and hasn't skipped a beat since..especially when he got his yoda little man with his tooth fairy money...love my little toothless wonder but hate that this happened.

My Brave Little Man

Well here goes, this blog is supposed to be somewhat of a journal of our little family's life,good and bad so here is an entry definetely falling under the heading of very bad. One of Chris's coworkers' wife just had a baby,but now the baby needed surgery and they also have a 3 year old little boy. Well even though we live in spitting distance of the nations best hospital, they can't seem to provide a place for families with more than one kid to stay and so therefore chris offers my premier babysitting talents (yeah right) to this family (he did ask first though) and so reluctantly I take on the task of watching this little man. Okay sorry time to shorten the post....watched the boy overnight of which he did great at sleeping thank goodness and then the next day comes and things are definitely a little rougher, but lunch time comes and things have settled down and so we decide to have a picnic outside with our toys and food, kyle runs back inside to get one last toy and trips on the stairs right inside the house and manages to split (read this: like butterflying a chicken breast in half) his front tooth...hard to see in pic but its there and so we go to dentist with this extra child and a sad kyle....sorry for the weird mouth,tongue pic..just trying to show his tooth.
