My poor Stephen. Unfortunately I cannot say he is purposefully puffing out his left cheek. Over a year ago he had a cavity filled and somehow that same cavity got infected and he swelled up last week. The pictures do not do it justice. The swelling had actually gone down quite a bit. These pictures are just before our trip to the Dentist to get it pulled. He was such a trooper! He did really well with the dentist but I could tell it was really painfull. As the Dentist finished pulling the tooth I saw tears streaming down his cheeks. He didn't full on kick and scream from the pain until I carried him out to the car. It was really sad but he put on a brave face for the doctor. I was also informed by the dentist that he will most likely need braces in the future because his mouth is too small. Yippee. Overall, not a fun visit to the dentist.
