Julianna gets a fat lip....

Yesterday morning Julianna had a dentist appointment for her 1st small cavity to be filled. Jeremiah took her in and she went back all by herself like a big girl. The Dentist and his assitants all commented on how cooperative she was and how well behaved. YAY! First dental appointment success....right?! Well pretty much.......except for this:

Apparently, my darling little daughter didn't get the memo about not chewing on your lip while still numb and she basically bit through her gums...gnawing away like it was a piece of bubble gum! She now has a massive fat lip and its all open and icky. It hurts for her to fully open her mouth and she is talking a little funny. I called her dentist's office and they said Salt water rinses and lots of ice. Have you ever tried to get a 3 year old to salt water rinse?? It's kinda not happening. My biggest fear is that it will get infected. I think I'm gonna go buy some popsicles to help with the swelling and hopefully it goes down soon. :(
