Teethies

10/2

Why is it that I've had 30+ cavities (+ 1 root canal) in my life and Justin's had 2?

Lucky him got some good teeth genes (cause I have better hygiene so we can rule that out).

But just in case Justin didn't pass those genes on to Drew I took him in young to get checked out.

So far so good.

I thought we were good with Owen, too but unlucky him gets his first 2 cavities filled next week.

Do we really have to fix his baby teeth that are going to fall out anyway?

Wow. I dont know I think I would wait for them to fall out. Unless your dental plan is paying the whole thing.

Poor Owen! I'm sure he'll do great! The dentist mentioned that if/when Emma has to get fillings, we put her under local anesthesia (that's how much she likes the dentist!). And isn't unfair that the guys get away with little hygiene and still have healthy teeth! What up?

That is soo funny. That is EXACTLY like me and Linus. I brush more times a day and he NEVER flosses except when the dentist does it 2x a year:). It makes me so mad. I think I have my moms teeth. I hope Payten gets her daddy's teeth, she has his bad toes so maybe she'll get his good teeth! I love the idea for conference. It is so great to be able to watch it on the internet for those who cannot get it on tv!!!

He is so tiny!!! That chair looks like the Stay Puff Marshmallow man behind him. I hear you about the teeth, Ben has never had a cavity, lucky. I think it's just like the weight thing. Guys think about losing weight and they do, but for us we think about losing weight and we get bigger...crazy.

SAME with us too. Although I haven't had a cavity since jr. high, but I think I might have one now....I've been meaning to make an appt. for over a year! *scary* Do most guys have not so up to par dental hygene?! Please tell me yes so I won't feel alone in this battle!!!!!
Owen- May the force be with you!!!! Hopefully he gets 'funny gas'!

Drew looked like he was in a big fluffly cloud! You know they have new medicine out here for people to get sedated during dentist appts if they are too scared.
