Messy toes!

This weekend was very... eventful! Monday at a swim party with his preschool class, Son tripped on his swim towel right before we left & landed on his face; thus bruising his chin & getting four bloody front teeth. Now although his top left tooth tightened enough to eat hard food, it never completely tightened after his Mother's Day accident. Both of his top two teeth were loose (left one much more so!). The dentist was closed on Tuesday but got us in & bonded his top left tooth first thing in the morning. An hour after we got home from the dentist, he was wrestling with one of his neighborhood friends & loosened it all over, bleeding again. A few hours later it was back to the dentist where they repaired the bonding & it's soft food until his follow-up appointment. Now I cringe every time he's playing in ear of him re-injuring his tooth yet another time. If the tooth doesn't tighten up, then they may have to pull it out & his baby teeth won't be in for another year & a half or so! Now if only I could find the secret to getting a four-year-old playing quietly! Any advice besides taping him to a chair??? Kidding of course!


Today Son was playing behind me when he noticed my feet. That's when he said "Mommy, you have messy feet!" That would be the calluses, of course.


Incidentally, I got an x-ray at my new foot doctor & he informed me that I've never broken any of my toes - just VERY badly bruised. So now I can finally say again that after 33 years, I've never broken any bones! Yay for me! That's not to say I don't have a knack for injuring myself other ways almost every day. Just ask my husband. just this morning he mentioned how keeping my feet & Son's teeth healthy is breaking the bank! :-) What can I say? <LOL>
