The Big Fall

Hailey had her first "big fall" this week; actually her first two. On Saturday evening I was packing my dinner for work and looking in the pantry. She was standing next to me, then all of the sudden she hit the tile floor and started screaming and bleeding. She had two cuts on her lip and it started getting swollen. I couldn't wiggle her teeth so I thought they were okay. Ben kept her busy playing until bedtime and she went down great. In the morning when I got home from work Hailey woke up so I changed her diaper and checked her mouth. It was obvious that her right front tooth was pushed back up into her gum and her gum was very swollen and bruised. I called the on-call nurse... who called the pediatrician... who referred us to a pediatric dentist. On Monday morning we went to the dentist, had an xray, and got a balloon :) The dentist said that her tooth is obviously moved but hopes that it will bring itself back into place. We won't know until she loses her baby teeth if it messed up her adult teeth. We'll have a check up in 6 weeks to see if its come down at all.

In other news... Ben's car is in the shop and we are both looking forward to having to cars!! We leave for our cruise in one week and are trying to get our legal affairs in order. It's strange thinking about a will. There are some changes happening at work about when and how our schedules are going to change with the economy being bad and not being able to hire more nurses. Pray that I know what to do! I love my job and want to stay, but I have to do whats best for my family so I am pretty stressed about it. Maybe if I ignore it, it will just go away.

Hailey just went down for a nap and I am crying watching the biggest loser so I guess thats all for now!
