The Twins Visit the Dentist

I took the twins to the dentist to get their teeth cleaned today. In the past, taking them to the dentist has been quite the challenge. They throw a fit, won’t open their mouth for the dentist and are generally very uncooperative. Today was quite different. The hygienist called Jared back and he went all by himself! She said he was a big boy and could go by himself and that is just what Jared did. A bit later, they called Riley back and he went by himself as well. I kept expecting to hear screaming coming from them, but there was none. They did everything asked – including letting them take x-rays of their teeth. Their teeth are fine, but Jared has a lesion on the inside of his check that the dentist wants an oral surgeon to look at. I’ll make an appointment for that tomorrow. He said he didn’t think it was anything to worry about, but it was better to play it safe and get it checked out.

Falyn’s New Tricks

Falyn has learned two new “tricks”. She can now wave and say “Hi!”. It is so adorable! She has the cutest voice. She can also play peek-a-boo with you. She will take her taggie and cover her face with it, then pull it off and say “peak!”. So cute! I am a bit surprised by how many words she already says at only 10 months of age. Looks like she is going to be a very verbal child. With five older siblings, she will have to be!
