My first dentist visit!

Sam has started working on real people at dental school this semester and he was finally able to have me come to be one of his patients. I went in on Tuesday and he took x-rays of all of my teeth. It was fun to be there and see his school and everything that he does there. I have been by his school before but never inside. On Wednesday, he checked my x-rays to what is wrong with my teeth and then he cleaned them. I wasn't nervous for him to clean my teeth but next Friday Sam is going to be filling one of my cavities. I will be a little nervous for him to inject me. It will be one of his first! I am sure he will do great. I forgot to take a picture of Sam in his scrubs but here is a picture of me in the dentist chair and my x-rays are right behind.

Ha ha I am so glad you got a picture of your dentist experience. I can't wait for Sam to be a dentist! I've had bad experiences lately.

He only gets to fill one of your cavities? How many do you have? It will be nice to trust your dentist! Great picture.

Sorry this comment is a little late, but that's pretty awesome. I'm still waiting for the day that Josh can remove the little mole on my back. :) He could probably do it now since he is technically a doctor, but I don't know that he'd feel real comfortable about it.

So awhile ago you asked how to play Beware of the Scare of the Ricky Ticky Bear. Well, I'm not sure how exactly to explain in via internet cause there is a song that goes along with it. It's basically a keep the beat game. Everyone sits in a circle and has an object (I've played it with a shoe and with a spoon)and you start singing the Ricky Ticky Bear song while passing the object to the beat. Every round gets faster and faster. When someone messes up they get kicked out of the circle. Sure wish I could sing you the song so you could play. Oh well!

So, how did the apt. go? Did Sam accidentally numb your tongue? Hey we are moving closer, maybe we can all get together...
