Look at this picture and see if you can tell anything out of the ordinary with Cannon. Yes there is blood on his shirt. That is a clue!
Now on to the story of how this happened and where to go from here! Cannon was standing at the table in a chair and it looked like he walked off the chair and hit his tooth on the edge of the table. The gash in the table leads us to believe it happened that way at least. Anyways after calming down (me mostly) we called the dentist that Cameron mows for and talked to him. He said there is nothing we can do because of his age and that when he is 3 1/2 we can talk about a replacement tooth but not before then!!! AAAAHHHHH!!!! So we go in to the doc. in 10 days to do x-rays to check for nerve damage and see if the other teeth were traumatized. If there is nerve damage his other teeth will turn black. Oh great! Anyways this was just awful and I hate it. I was taking the kids to get their picture made tomorrow and I will cancel first thing in the morning. I just can't do it so soon. I know that I have a year and a half to live with it before we can do anything but I just can't take pictures the day after it happened. I need to let the shock wear off.
On a much more upbeat note Gracelyn starts school tomorrow! WAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Oh, Keri! Bless your heart! Hang in there! Glad Cannon is ok! :) Hope Gracelyn has a great day tomorrow! I hope you can also enjoy your day tomorrow, too. It was nice to see your family at church this morning. Caden and I had a wonderful time. Caden was so excited to meet you! He has talked about you for most of the afternoon! He is really excited to start school. The countdown has begun!

Hey K,
Look at it this way: (1) We boys love our scars, or in this case, gaping holes in our teeth! It makes us look tough (ie: hockey players). And (2), in case he forgets how tough he is, you can remind Cannon when he starts to cry over a scraped knee that it's nothing compared to knocking out his entire tooth!
Good luck, Gracelyn!

OOOOOOOCH!!!! That is the only thing that I can say. But on the good side of things....He looks too stinkin' cute with his toothless smile. That boy is going to truly keep you on your toes. ;-)
Ouch. I knocked out my 2 front teeth in the 1st grade so i know his pain. Luckily I was to young to remember most of it.
Keri!!! Oh my goodness!!! You know what, he still is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Christian fell on the one of the streets downtown at about this age, and chipped off a big section of his front tooth...and like you said, I think it's more traumatizing for the mom than the boy. :) Hang in there---it will be fine!
Oh my gosh! I am sure that was traumatizing for you guys. I agree with Melissa though he is still the cutest thing. I hope Gracelyn's first day of school is amazing!
I am so sorry to hear about Cannon but things will work out fine. He is so cute and that just adds to his attitude. Just hang in there it has been a ruff weekend on the Melban Grandchildren. I am with ya. I hope that Gracelyn has a great time in school. Love you all.
Ouch! That looks painful.
