officially lost her first tooth

It was the one on the right that was *supposed* to have been extracted 2 days ago. It's been loose since her accident at daycare.

Last night it was just done for. She was eating a banana. Pink blood on the banana. Looked at her tooth and it was in there like sideways. D grabbed a tissue and pulled it right on out. Bug barely noticed and went right on eating that banana - which was now covered in blood after she'd bite it. She finished it anyway, and I gave her a popsicle to help slow the bleeding.

She such a little trooper. But we did give her some baby ibuprofen just in case it hurt later (since it was at bedtime when this happened).


And about her extraction. Our appt was for 09/19 at 8am. I arrived early. Sydney realized where we were and started screaming. Lady at front receptions says "no, you don't have an appt today".
"yes, we do. To get her 2 teeth extracted".
"oh, no. We're not doing that here today. Maybe you're supposed to be at the Santa Ana office? Didn't anyone call you?"
"No. Nobody called us"
(her looking at computer) "You are not scheduled until October 24th"
"What?!! We have to wait 5 more weeks, when we've already paid for this in full?!! Her tooth isn't going to make it 5 more weeks"
(Sydney still screaming in my ear, as I am holding her this whole time)
"We didn't have enough patients to justify the anesthesiologist coming in today. She wont be here until the 24th of next month"

I was fuming. I walk out, get Sydney in the carseat, and call daycare to tell them I will be bringing her today and ask if they can hold one breakfast over for her (she'd been fasting for her surgery). "We can't serve breakfast after 8am, but we do snack at 9am".
It was 8:02am.

That was a rough morning.
