Who likes to go to the dentist?


Blake does! TJ had a dentist appointment on Monday so I thought I would bring Blake to watch, knowing that he is close to needing a teeth cleaning. I was fully prepared for an all out scream fest when the time finally came to have his teeth cleaned. I mean history has proven that new situations with strange people don't go over well with Blake (still crying at his church class, screaming at swim lessons, screaming for the first two months of preschool).

Blake watches TJ in the dentist chair and decides he wants to go for a ride in it and tells the hygienist that he will let her count his teeth. When TJ gets done, Blake yells "It's my turn" and runs into the room. Next thing I know, he is getting his teeth cleaned and polished. He even let the dentist look in his mouth. Jon's reply after he found out "I will never understand that kid -- he cries at everything new but the dentist."

On an even brighter note -- we have been able to play outside the last couple of days. It is now starting to feel like spring!
