Ok, nothing but the usual excuses as to why mom hasn't updated my blog in 2 weeks, but this time we had some REAL drama going on! Holden had a growth removed from the inside of his lower jaw/gumline! It's been bugging him for a while and the Oral Surgeon removed it and sent it off for pathology. THANKFULLY it turned out to be just a benign growth, but he had a few rough days with swelling and pain, which I was all too happy to help comfort!
Here's Holden looking all swollen on the left side of his face. Poor baby had a bunch of stitches and was all doped up on Darvocet!
Holden only missed one day of school, which was good because it was SPIRIT WEEK for Homecoming! Here we are together on Hat Day
Mom tried to put a hat on me too, but I hated it and tried to eat it.
I'm not in this picture, but mom likes it.....Holden's football team got to ride in an ARMY TRUCK for the Homecoming parade! My team got their faces all painted up with cammo and we had fun screaming, yelling and chucking candy at all the people along the parade route.
Happy Tuesday everyone!

Yikes! Growths are scary and painful, so double yikes. But kudos to the human for putting up with it with a smile!
We are glad Holden's growth was benign and that he is feelin better. We've missed you.

That's SO weird! I had a groth in the in upper roof of my mouth, by the jawline. It didn't hurt but it was hard. I had an oral surgen get rid of it in July. It turned out to be a begin tumor. Still...weird and kinda freaky!
