The Tooth Thing...AGAIN!

Sunny woke up with a huge swollen lip this morning and I knew immediately what it was. Her other front tooth! We knew there was a chance that she could need it pulled too, but we were hoping she could keep it. Yesterday she was acting pretty strange. Very sad and whiny, which is so unusual for her. She wasn't even super happy while we were at the skating rink, and I just knew something was wrong. Unfortunately I was right. When I saw the lip and the glazed look on her face I called the dentist right away and they were able to get her in this afternoon. Her tooth is abscessed and infected and has to come out. She is on a 7 day course of the super strong antibiotics and will have the tooth pulled on the 25th. Poor, poor Sunny Bunny. She is such a trooper. I hope we can get rid of that tooth and be done with the dentist for a good long while. Thank goodness for good dental insurance and a great pediatric dentist!
