Austin Tooth Knocked Out

Shantel was up at the Red Brick House (RBH). That is what we are starting to call the Lyman Ranch house now that her parents have inherited the house. She has been helping work on helping her parents get ready to move from Morgan to Lyman and also working on getting the RBH ready for some remodels. 

Shantel and the kids were staying there for a few days. 

They had set up a Zipline at the house and as Austin was riding it he let go and the seat came up and hit him in the mouth. Austin has lots of baby teeth left, unfortunately it came up and knocked out one of his teeth and it was not a baby tooth. Shantel immediately got the tooth in milk and started figuring out what to do and where to take Austin. Unfortunately it was Saturday night and that meant it was hard to find somewhere to take him. I was at home because I had just got back from a trip and was not in Lyman. Shantel finally found an emergency dental place in Sandy that answered and said they would help them. Shantel drove straight there and got there around 8:30 or 9 at night. Austin was definitely worried but was not in too much pain. 

One funny thing is that when the Dentist came in Shantel immediately realized that is was her roommate from her freshman year, Darliece. I didn't know this, but she eventually asked about my Utah State shirt and said the went there and Shantel confirmed with her that it was her roommate. Darliece is a little bit infamous in our house because she was not a very nice roommate to Shantel, so she is probably not the person we would want to fix Austin's tooth. 

However, she got it back in and told us that we'll just have to wait and see if the tooth is able to recover and live or if he'll have to have it replaced. We gave him a blessing the next day and are really hoping that his tooth will be able to recover.
