Aden's Blue Tooth

On Saturday my little boy fell in the kitchen and hit his mouth on the floor. His two front teeth busted his lip and we had a bit of a bloody mouth. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be once he let me really look at it. I wiggled his teeth and one of them felt a tiny bit loose...well now...2 days later...it is turning blue. SOOOO I'm sure that he damaged the root and I'm PRAYING that it doesn't fall out or have to be pulled. I would appreciate it if everyone who reads this could send up a prayer or two for Aden's tooth! His teeth are so perfect and it is just breaking my heart to see this one turn blue! He is able to eat just fine and it doesn't seem to bother him. I am so very sad about this :(

Tomorrow we will probably be taking a trip to Dr Okamono's office (Aden's pediatric dentist who we have already seen once for a baby check up and who I just LOVE) I know that sometimes baby teeth will just sort of re-attach themselves and it all just works out on it's own-I am soooooooo hoping this will be the case for us!

On a happier note, Aden's new jammies are 3T!! He is only 21 months and he is already wearing things that are 3T. I love my big boy :) He is going to be very tall like his Daddy.

In an effort to help me get more sleep, Scott started taking Ava into her room to sleep and not let her nurse as much. I only nursed her at 2am and then at 5:30am...with his help I know that we will be seeing easier nights sooner rather than later-thank you Scotty! At the same time, I am already missing snuggling in the dark with her and nursing back to sleep...so conflicted!

Aaaawwww Aden's poor tooth!! I'm so sorry! Prayers are being lifted. That's got to be so hard. Let me know how the dentist goes.

Glad to hear you're getting the much needed SLEEP!! What a helpful guy!! I know it'll be hard at first but the sleep will be nice for a bit!

We need to get together! We'll talk soon!
xoxo!
