Gracie's Boo Boo

Grace thought it was a good idea to run in the bathroom when the floor was wet, she quickly regretted that decision. It was like slow motion as I saw her slip face first into the toilet. It took quite some time for us to figure out where the bleeding was coming from. After the bleeding was done and she got some ice for her lip, she was as good as new. We told her she had monkey lips and that made her giggle each time. The next day I told her she still had monkey lips and she replied "no mommy, Grace lips!"

The swelling happened almost immediately. She kind of looks like she has a cleft palatte. She liked to put the ice pack in her mouth rather than keep it on her lips.

Poor girl. Her gums were split open too, but you can't see that in the picture. Luckily, no teeth were pushed in or loose.

She thought she had to smile for this picture too!
