ahhhhhhh chip!

ali got to get her tooth fixed today from her recent chip "incident". this is her getting ready. notice the tv hanging from the ceiling. these poor kids nowadays, they have it so rough. who else remembers getting told to just suck it up and sit still?

this was them trying to match the tooth color in the natural light.

ali got some nitrous oxide to help "take the edge off" they said. she was feelin pretty good.

this is ali getting ready for her procedure.

here is a "before" picture just to remind all of you what it looked like.

and here is her tooth after. i think dr. streeby did a really great job.

she had a hard time opening her mouth for the picture.

i don't have any other pictures during because she was kinda freakin out and i pretty much spent the entire time holding her hands and calming her down. it was a little scary for her.

she was still a little shaken up from the numbing stuff. she really hated the fact that it felt like her lips were 5 times the size they really were. nothing that a milkshake wouldn't fix. and after some chicken noodle soup, a quiet time in mom's bed she was good as new.

lookin good ali!!!!
