Oral Surgery day for La...

This morning Lauren had her wisdom teeth taken out. Poor thing. She's pitiful right now with that ice pack wrapped around her head. She only had 3 wisdom teeth instead of 4 (for my dental friends - she was missing #17). I think she was dreading getting the IV in her arm more than anything else. She was hard to wake up from the general anesthesia and they said that she may be sleepy for several hours. The nurse and I were doing our best to wake her up enough so they could clear her to go home, but it was really hard. Lauren & I have a habit of keeping a rubber band around our wrist to pull our hair back. As I was trying to rouse her after the surgery, I noticed it on her wrist and knew she wouldn't need it so I took it off of her arm and threw it in my purse. She opened her eyes and started crying and reaching for it. I can't wait to tell her about that in a few days when she's better. So anyway, she's in there asleep on the couch with the elastic back on her wrist. I hope she recovers soon! It will be ice cream and mashed potatoes for the next few days.
