Poor Riley

Last night was kind of a sad night at our house. We had some friends over for dinner, which was really fun. After dinner we went downstairs to play Kinnect...which was also really fun. Shortly after we started playing our games however, the night took a turn for the worse.

Poor Riley was going to go upstairs. He ran to the first stair, missed, and landed directly on his mouth. It all happened so quickly, that he didn't even have time to throw his hands down to catch himself.

He knocked one of his teeth out...a tooth that was already super loose. He also knocked another tooth back (see bottom picture. This tooth was not loose, but thankfully it was a baby tooth.

Since he landed on his mouth, his top two teeth went straight into his bottom lip. Luckily, those two particular teeth are just coming in and not too long yet, or they may have gone all the way through. Yuck!

Needless to say, there was a lot of blood...a LOT...and a lot of tears. BUT, there is a happy ending to this story. Aunt Jenny sent Riley and Tanner a super nice package with SUPER nice Legos in it. Riley has all but forgotten about his mouth and has been happily playing with his new Harry Potter Legos ALL day. Thanks Aunt Jenny! Your gift could not have come at a better time!
