Scary!!

Lexi had her first real bloody accident last Sunday. There was a time when Lexi was first born that Ryan cut a little hole in her finger with the clippers and we had a hard time getting it to stop bleeding, but this was much worse. Lexi was being too loud and wiggly during relief society on Sunday so we went out to walk down the halls. There were some nursery toys in the hallway that I couldn't get Lexi away from. I kept pulling on her hand to get her to walk with me but she would just sit her little bum down on the floor like she does when she doesn't want us to move her. So i picked her up and took her WAY down the hallway so she'd hopefully forget about the toys. When i set her down, she turned right around and started walking a little too fast towards them. I'm not sure if she lost her balance or tripped, but she fell flat on her face. I went and picked her up and it took her a few seconds to finally breathe and cry, but she stopped after a minute. Then I noticed large amounts of blood coming out her mouth. I took her paci out and it was covered with blood as well as my hand. I started freaking out.. I just stood there in the hallway for a minute trying to figure out what might be bleeding and what to do.. I'm definitely NOT good with blood!! Anyway, we hurried to the bathroom and there was a lady who saw the blood and came into the bathroom with me and got her face all cleaned off. It took a while to figure out what was bleeding to get it to stop.. I'm still not exactly sure what happened but it looks like she must have hit her tooth because it was red and bruised looking on her gum around the front tooth and then it also looks like she ripped a little bit of that flap thing that connects your top lip to your gum. Not fun! I had to feed her soft foods for a little bit, but she seems to be doing fine now. We are hoping her tooth doesn't die and turn an ugly color! I definitely can do without anymore accidents for a while. I wish there was some way to protect kids from getting hurt. It makes me SO sad!!! Oh, and FYI.. hydrogen peroxide works AMAZING on blood stains! I had never heard of that until now, but it was so quick and easy.
