What a day!

My good friend Jackie came over with treats and socks lol. Its so good to catch up with her and hang out. We rented "Buried" off Redbox and realized it sucked! HA! I cannot believe the whole movie was spent under the ground... in this box! I think this might have been the director's idea to see if he could actually pull it off. Well, it sucked. But it was still awesome good times talking about wedding planning and her engagement, so fun to catch up! :)

In the middle of the movie my girl Vie came over with her cutie-pa-tootie aka: Tahlia's BFF :) It is amazing to watch them play together. After Jackie left, I busted out our wedding video for Vie and I to watch. Dan was outside making a fire and we were just about to eat when Tahlia fell and hit her mouth on the foot rest. The fall looked like it hurt, but I didnt think it would leave damage... wrong! I picked her up and as soon as I told her she was okay, I looked at her mouth and saw a pool of blood :( I grabbed a rag and brought her to the bathroom to clean her mouth and the blood just kept coming! Thank goodness Vie was there because at that point, I almost lost it... okay, maybe I did loose it a bit... its so hard to see your baby bleed! Honestly, I dont think I EVER saw so much blood. Vie is a nursing student and amazing. She took control and I was her nursing assistant.

She took a look at the lip and said it would be good to go to the ER. We get there, still have not eaten... and on the way, the bleeding finally stopped. We waited and waited and waited in the waiting room. I understand priority but we saw everyone that was in there get waited on... and a whole new bunch of people too! It seriously gets to the point where your baby has had enough and we had enough but you say, "better play it safe then be sorry".  Vie brought us the dinner I made so Tahlia finally ate at like 7:45. At 8:45, I asked them if they could just squeeze us in because it was past her bed time and I knew she would be even more of a handful to handle the longer we waited.

When Tahlia fell, she totally ripped the flap of skin that connects your top lip to your gums which caused extra skin to be released in between her 2 front teeth. The cut seemed fine but they were concerned with the tissue in between her teeth. After shooting her up with numbing medicine, giving her IBpro. and poking and prodding at her gums, they finally got a doctor to look at her. The doc took one 2sec. look at it and said, ''its nothing to be worried about. Keep it clean and go to the pediatrician within a week.'' And that was it!

At 9:45, we finally left, exhausted and irritated and warn out from holding our screaming... delusional daughter. Its 10:30 and I am finally getting an appetite to eat. Dan is in bed and Tahlia, she is out cold. I hope to never go to the ER again... but with Tahlia taking after her daddy wayyyy TOO MUCH, I think this was just the beginning...

Thank you God for testing our Patience today, I am sure it was meant for a good reason! lol

GOODNIGHT to one of the most terrible nights ever :(
