Ozark boys

Well I think the boys would fit right in if we decide to move to the Ozarks anytime soon. On Monday night F was attempting to stand on A's back (who was lying on the floor) when he fell off and chipped off his front tooth. He also did some trauma to his upper lip, but that is healing up nicely. I took him to the dentist on Tuesday for his first cleaning. He did really well and made it through the whole cleaning, flouride treatment and x-ray without a peep. The dentist said his tooth will most likely turn dark in a few weeks to months. She give us three options. 1. Do nothing and let nature take it's course. 2. Come back in 3 weeks and she can file down the tooth to make it look a little nicer, but it will still change colors and look a little odd. or 3. Come back in 3 weeks or more and they can place a crown on it. This is definately the most invasive option, but would look the most normal. We are going to think it over the next month or so and see what we want to do. I want to wait until his lip swelling goes down so we can see how bad it really looks. Here you can kind of see it, though he is a bit reluctant to have me photograph it. The other picture is of C and F reading a book together (a rare moment of friendliness between the two). C had decided to dress in cowboy gear today.
