Olivia made her first trip to the E.R. this morning. She is proudly displaying her injury in the photo.
Here's the scoop: She was brushing her teeth (and hates to be helped) and slipped off her step stool and BAM! -- hit her chin on the countertop and her top teeth went into her bottom lip. Instant hole in the lip.
The ever-so-unhelpful ped's office said "if she needs stiches, we don't do that here, so you might as well take her to the emergency room."
And so, we did. Olivia thought her admittance "bracelet" was rather cool...for a short time. And she freaked out when the doctor came in. But we came out of it OK - no stitches required and only 5 days on amoxocillin.
