Teeth are better, but fractured her left leg...

It has been a long week and a half getting Molly back to herself. She was fussy for longer than we had anticipated, but things look like they are healing nicely. She seems to like her new teeth and asks to see her shiny teeth in the mirror. She has a couple of red spots on her gums that we need to keep an eye on and may need to have looked at, but not yet.

I got her a new kitchen this weekend at a yard sale and she has been loving it. While she was playing with it today she slipped and has fractured her femur. The rod seems to be doing a great job of splinting it and so far all we have done is ice it and given her motrin. She has not tried crawling or standing since it happened, so we will see how things go. It is so hard when things are going so well and something as simple as a little slip can cause her so much pain. She is in good spirits and continues to be a fairly happy little girl.

She continues to shock us with the things that she remembers... today she found a plastic egg and talked about when we went for the egg hunt in the Spring. It was Jim's birthday last weekend and we talked about what we would do for her birthday and she blurted out... "my birthday is in January", which took us completely by surprise. She is now also telling people she is 2 and a half when asked how old she is, which I think is adorable (I admit I coached her on that one).
