Hillbilly Bridger

We had a devastating incident this week. Brody and Bridger were fighting over something really really important (my mom's sewing measuring tape) and Bridger ended up losing the game of tug-of-war. His face slammed into the tile and his cute little front tooth chipped. I didn't realize it at first- my mom saw something white on his lip and just wiped it off. He cried forever and I was wondering what was wrong. Then I was trying to make him laugh and when he finally did, I saw his tooth. It makes me sad everytime I see it because it will be there for like 6 years until it falls out. He looks like a hillbilly but he is still cute and I still love him (and I still love Brody too even though he isn't always the nicest big brother).

Bridger is so so so so cute. His little chipped tooth only makes him cuter. Also, those blue eyes are awesome. I want a hug...

I feel your pain. Ryder chipped the same exact tooth. I was devastated at first, but now I can't picture him without it.

I think it gives him character! He is still really cute to me! Plus with those blue eyes who wouldn't just fall in love with him.

Just paint it black and no one will know it's there.

He seems grown up too....I guess not seeing each other every day does that.

We miss you!

Oh no! Oh well, at least he has gorgeous blue eyes and yummy dimples and an adorable little smile!

Becky said...

It is hardly even noticeable. Just gives him character. Sho nuff!

I am glad that you still love him even though he isn't physically perfect. That is big-hearted of you. I don't know if I would be able to overlook such a flaw. Also, did mom say sho nuff?

At least he has all his teeth.. my kids are born missing teeth.. He is such a cute guy a little chipped tooth just adds character!

Staci said...

Okay that sounded really dumb.. all kids are born with no teeth.. but when they are older and they are supposed to come in my kids are missing their "I" teeth.. Sophia only has 2 top teeth because the other 2 that she should have are non-existant! Same with James.. He is six and doesn't have the baby ones or the adult ones.. Teeth are really silly! Sorry.. that was a long explanation to a really dumb comment.. I guess it is time for bed~

Oh ... so sad! Max isn't a very nice big brother all of the time either! If it is any consolation, I didn't really notice the chip until I read that he had chipped it! :)

When Talmage was 9 months old, he chipped his two front teeth on one of the chairs during church. He was just learning how to pull himself to standing and was standing, holding on to the side of the chair, lost his balance, and down he went. Chipped his two perfect little front teeth. :( I actually look back at pictures of him before and cry myself to sleep...:) I guess that was a little too much info...anyway...the ped dentist sanded his teeth down a little and now I can't imagine him any differently...it's just a reminder of the kind of kid he is....totally into EVERYTHING and constantly getting hurt! Miss ya girl! Thad's thinking about going into the Navy. We gotta talk! And um..sorry I wrote you a novel. :)

Sho Nuff? What have you people been doing to your mother?? Really?

I think it makes him even cuter!! I really like them both. If they had been playing at my house, I would have given them TWO measuring tapes. Just sayin'.
