Broken Teeth..not really

Well, this weekend gave us our first big accident!! Harper spent the night with her Aunt BB on Friday night, I actually got to go out and let my hair down , wish I hadn't the next day! LOL... different story... The next morning on the way to work I called to check on Harper and everything was great as I expected, she LOVES staying with Aunt BB. Went to work, and a short time later BreAnne (Aunt BB) came in with Harper and said "Gail I need to talk to you." WHAT ? WHY ? WHAT's WRONG? OMG WHAT?? And you know since I had a bit of a hangover I freaked out immediately and I didn't even know what was going on yet! She told me to look at her mouth. And of course I freaked out more! BreAnne had told me that Kendall (her daughter) and Harper were monkeying around on the couch, she told them to stop before someone got hurt. She went into the other room and Harper came in a few minutes later saying she broke her teeth! BreAnne just thought maybe she busted her lip because it was bleeding, she said Harper didn't cry til Corey showed her the blood. But when she was cleaning her lip she noticed that one of her teeth was out of place!! That's when she brought her to me. We frantically started calling dentists. Thank goodness I was doing Glenda Johnson's hair , having worked for Hatfield forever she was calm and calling around for us, we finally got in touch with Dr. Zatopek who met us at his office. He tried to move it back into position but not with much luck. We just now have to watch it for color change , more movement , tenderness(after the initial pain goes away) and go from there! She had the BIGGEST lip ever after her nap on Saturday! BreAnne had asked Kendall what happened when she got back home, and Kendall said Harper was crawling from her couch to the coffee table when her hands slipped and her face hit the table! And left teeth marks in the table! It could have been so much worse. We are very thankful it wasn't her eye or something worse! BreAnne was soo stinkning fabulous with her and ME(LOL). If it had to happen I am glad it happemed with her! She handle it great! Guess that's why she's a nurse! And Dr. Zatopek is wonderful too! He explained everything several times and on a level a freaked out mother could handle! He even called this mornig to check on her! How many doctors do that? HE is truly awesome!!! We go back friday for a check up on it...will keep ya posted! Sorry I didnt take any pictures becasue I thought it looked too horrible! Probably would be funny now but ..oh well
