Congrats, boys!

I finally got the boys to the dentist and boy was I concerned about the visit: Nik has never been to a dentist; Ben was last at a dentist 3 years ago; I have not helped them brush their teeth a year because I am so worn down by the end of the day. On top of all of that parents were not allowed any further than the waiting room... and I was not sure how Nik would react. I knew it was all going to be OK as soon as 2 very cute and bubbly hygienists came out to whisk away the boys. I settled down with a magazine to wait...

After what seemed like a very long wait the two boys came out clutching bags of goodies and grinning from ear to ear. They passed me their report cards and were excited to look at their x-rays with the kind, elderly, doctor. Perfect. We are definitely going back there.

Congrats, boys, on a cavity-free check-up...

How? Well... we never drink juice, the boys have always lived with fluoridated water, and, most importantly, they seem to have inherited Ian's teeth. Huzzah!

Congratulations to Ben and Nik!
Your e-mail sounds inspiring. May be I should make dentist appointment tomorrow. Too bad I can not make it with their doctor.

Boy, they must brush well to have no cavities and the space between visits. Good for you boys.

A nice kind pediatric dentist is a good thing. Glad it went well.

I'm trying to get ready for the girls' arrival tomorrow.

Oh boy! You must be so excited! We won't be getting there till the first week of August but the boys are already looking forward to seeing the girls again.
