Brinlee's Tooth




Just over a week ago Brinlee had a pain in her tooth and a large lump on her gum. Of course it was a weekend and we haven't seen a dentist in Utah yet, but fortunately the lump began to drain and the pain subsided. Then I noticed the lump was back a few days ago so we made an appointment with a local pediatric dentist. It was discovered that she has an abscessed tooth and it needed to be pulled. The dentist asked if she would like to wait until her cleaning appointment next week or do it now. She didn't hesitate....'do it now'. She was very tough and he took the tooth without any problem. We headed straight to Jake's baseball game and unlike our usual sweet, happy Brinlee...she was pretty grumpy during the game. I guess you can't blame her!
