Does your face hurt?

Yesterday, about 5 minutes before our realtor was going to come over to talk to us about selling our home, Libby tripped going into the bathroom and hit her face on the step stool. Luckily Beth was only about 3 minutes from home because there was a lot of blood coming out of Libby's mouth. Libby wouldn't let us get a very good look inside of her mouth and Beth was worried about how the gums were looking, so she called our dentist and he was able to recommend a Pediatric Dentist for Beth to rush Libby to.

In this picture you can see the black and blue gum, the fat lip and the beginnings of the bruise on Libby's chin. What you can't see is the huge gash on the inside of her lip. I am surprised it didn't need stitches.

This picture was taken this morning and you can see how huge her lip got over night. She can barely talk, is only eating soup and other soft foods and is drooling like a bulldog.
We are hoping that the tooth is ok and doesn't turn into a stink-tooth. Luckily they are still her baby teeth. The dentist said the swelling should go down in another 2 or 3 days.
