I realized today that I sounded a bit bummed on my last post. I admit, it probably wasn't the best time for me to be telling you all about it, the 'mommy guilt' was still hanging pretty heavy. So, here is an update on my Bryn.
Things went pretty well with the extraction. The biggest complaint Bryn had was that she couldn't eat before we went in to have it done.
Once we arrived at the Surgical Center she wanted Greg to take her back into the room where he was able to hold her while she breathed in the gas. Once she was asleep he came back to the waiting room and it was probably only 30 minutes or so before she was waking up and we were able to go back with her. The Doctor said that everything went just as expected. The tooth was broken in 3 other spots, so it was more of just taking the puzzle apart and then convincing the root to come too. The only hiccup was that they decided they wanted to put an IV in her, but after sticking her 4 times and being unable to find a vein they decided not to. Her poor little arm has quite a few bruises. She woke up pretty easily, and wanted to go home right away. On our way out the nurse stopped us in the lobby just in time for Bryn to get sick. Thank goodness for tile floors!
The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. We just tried to catch up and make sure she was happy. I am glad kids bounce back quickly, but I think a bit of Bryn's sweetness was knocked out with her tooth! :) Now we just wait for 3 or 4 years for the next tooth to fill the space!

Good news, look at that smile~ Hopefully that 'momma guilt' has left! When you coming to Utah? I'd love to see you!
Hey, at least she still has the cuteness going for her. She is beautiful. I'm sorry Amy, there is nothing worse than the "mom guilt"
