Back To School!!

Yesterday was a day of firsts for our family - first day of high school, first day of second grade, first emergency trip to a dentist. Wow what a day! Blake started high school. I can not believe how fast he has grown up. Cordell started second grade. He is growing up on me too. Ayden couldn't just go through the day without a first too. He had an accident at the babysitter's that sent him on an emergency trip to the dentist. Poor baby hit his 4 bottom front teeth and pushed them forward. Lyndell got the call at about 10:30. Since it was my first day of this school year, he did not even call me until after school when everything was all over. That was probably a good thing. I just don't know if I could have handled it. They deadened it and pushed his teeth back in place. His teeth have bigger gaps between them now. We are just crossing our fingers and praying that over the next few days the teeth won't die. He could possibly lose all 4 bottom front teeth. Thankfully, they are baby teeth, but it will be a few years before permenant teeth come in. Hopefully they will be okay.

First day of high school - too cool to smile!

First day of second grade!

First emergency trip to the dentist. You can see the gaps between his teeth. He is enjoying the diet of chocolate milkshakes though. You can see part of the last one displayed on his little face. I was nervous to even wash his face.

The picture below is for comparison. This was from last week. Notice the gaps are not nearly as big. His face is still dirty though. That seems to be Ayden's trademark. I wash that little face constantly, but before you can turn around, it is dirty again. Dirt is his best friend!!

Today he is feeling better. His mouth is rather bruised. We are just going to wait and see.
