Teeth... Lots of Teeth...
So one might be inclined to wonder if this post (like the other posts that have talked about teeth recently) is about Aaron getting MORE teeth. Well while it's true that Aaron is now up to a grand total of 4 teeth, that he likes to chew on everything with, this post is about different teeth. This post is about Eileen and Anna's teeth. The teeth in these pictures belong to two sweet little
accident prone girls. You will notice that Eileen's two front teeth are dead that the one on the right is chipped. This was the result of an accident when she was about 18 months old. She tried to jump out of a kiddie swing before I was ready to catch her. She did a face plant and chipped her tooth on the rock gravel.
Anna recently decided on a trip to Walmart that, like with everything else, she had to be just like her sister. So while running around Walmart, yelling and getting out energy, she slipped, fell and did a face plant chipping the front tooth on the left. She cried for a minute or two and spit out a bit of her tooth for mommy, then went on her way. The only problem now will be when she realizes that she messed up and didn't chip the same tooth as Eileen. But then again, maybe she won't realize it, since it's a mirror image. :) I sure hope Aaron doesn't follow suit, it would be nice to have one child make it through their childhood with their teeth in tact...

This made me laugh! Both of Emma's two front teeth are chipped (from separate incidents). Not to mention, they're all messed up from her sucking her thumb. Oh well. And so far, neither of my boys have done anything to mess up their teeth. Who says girls are more mellow?
Just reading this made MY teeth hurt! I'm so paranoid about my kids having "teeth" accidents . . . ever since my brother rode his bike under a volleyball net when he was little, forgetting to close his mouth, and ripping his two front PERMANENT teeth clean out of his mouth. For years, he wore a "flipper" (a retainer with two fake teeth on it) that he'd try to sneak onto my plate during dinner time. GROSS!!! Thankfully Anna and Eileen's teeth accidents thus far are only to their baby teeth!
Alaina has chipped both her front teeth, before she was one I think, two different incidents. But Jonny has yet to even fall on his mouth. I don't know, maybe it is a girl thing!
