Another Week

It's been another normal week at our house. And we can't wait for it to be over:) Callan cut another tooth the other day (his 7th). He is so nightmare-ish when he is teething. I thought he was just starting to develop a strong personality like his brother, but when he refused food Sunday night, I KNEW there was something wrong with the kid! A few nights of up-all-night and a few mornings of up at 4:30 later his tooth broke through. Yet he is still up all night.... hmmm... it must still hurt. So we get up together at 4:30 and get the house straightened up before the rest of the family gets up. We were doing the dishes the other day and I looked down and found him standing up in the dishwasher.

Easton had a dental appointment yesterday. Auntie Katie is a pediatric dental assistant and wanted Easton to come visit her. Right when he got there he got to put on a cape and headed back for x-rays. I was shocked at the x-rays. I've seen x-rays before, but you could see all his grown up teeth underneath his baby teeth. So weird! I guess I thought they were still forming? I could even see that he got my 2 huge front teeth. Sorry buddy.

Kate did a great job cleaning his teeth and Easton did really well.

The dentist came in and looked in Easton's mouth for a while and said, "Easton has what we call a typodontic mouth." Katelin and I looked at each other nervously and I was so worried about what he meant! Then he explained what a typodont is:

Apparently his teeth look just like the pediatric clay models they practiced on in school. Hooray! He got his dad's good teeth!

Then he got a mask, arm bands, and belt and he got to bring his whole outfit home!

This was a much better dental experience than our other ones! Easton has always done really well at the dentist, but as far as the office this was by far the best.

So if any of you live in the Bronx of South Salt Lake, Burg Pediatric Dentistry is the place to go.
