Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later with this little monkey...
We're still not sure exactly what happened. She was playing in her room, when we heard crying. It seems she fell off something she had turned into a stool, and bit right thru her cheek.
She cried and cried and cried, until she finally fell asleep in my arms.
Luckily we had two soon-to-be dentists in the house at the time. They rounded up some supplies and a soon-to-be ENT specialist. Considering it was a Sunday night, we thought they could do a better job than the nearest ER. Brian numbed up her cheek. She didn't like that too much (I think because it hurt a little, tasted yucky and made her bleed more), so she wouldn't let our ENT friend anywhere near her to stitch her up. Luckily, they have an app for that :) It's called Netflix. We turned on Backyardigans on my IPhone and held it so she could see it, and she sat perfectly still the rest of the time. She got two stitches on the outside and two stitches on the inside. She was such a trooper!
