Xander's First Trip to the Dentist

On April 12, 2011 we took both boys to the dentist

The waiting room is awesome! There's a tree house play structure with a slide and toys for the kids to play with. The walls are all painted lime green and it's just a really fun atmosphere.

Here are the boys playing, Xander having NO idea what's about to happen.....

We let Michael go first with the hygienist, and Xander payed close attentionThen it was his turn with the hygienistHe was NOT impressed!

Then Michael met with the dentistAnd Xander got increasingly more cautiousThen Xander's turnI think you can tell just how well that was recieved!

But we all made it through it and their teeth look good and healthy!


That month we also got Xander into speech therapy. I knew he was still young, but I regret that we didn't Michael into speech earlier than we did, and I didn't want to regret it with Xander. So we got him evaluated and he qualified (but just barely) and has been seeing the same speech pathologist as Michael about 3 times a month. And if you see the side bar, his speech has ExPLODeD!

I was seriously JUST thinking that you hadn't blogged in awhile and then I went to google reader and saw 3 posts! So funny. Glad you guys are doing well. Your boys are sure getting big!

We love that dentist and his office! They handled Peter's root canal two years ago and did such a great job that we haven't even thought of going anywhere else! He is seriously the best!
