So lets start back in January! LOL... the boys started the new year seeing the dentist for the first time. Yes, I'll admit it, I'm not a huge fan of the dentist or anyone sticking metal appliances into my mouth. But I'm determined to not pass that on to my boys!
Here they are all ready to go to the dentist! Exciting times... :-)

Dr. Benjamin Greene's office in Kirkland was very kind and caring to all the Kelly boys. They saw them all at the same time, so it was fun running from station to station trying to get pics of everyone.

Little Ry's prognosis was so-so... come to find out he had weak enamel on most of his lower teeth and some of his top teeth. Now I know why cold and sour stuff bugged him so much!! Not much they can do treat that, but say that not all of his teeth were like that. We are believing for total healing in his teeth though!!
Josiah did well too. He had a great report. 
The doctor could see by the x-ray that he had a tooth growing in on top of another tooth that was still in his mouth. I couldn't see it then, but now (April) you can see it popping right out. That stubborn little tooth up front won't budge either. You can see it on the left x-ray second tooth in the picture. We're doing the wiggle thing on it every night though. 

And Mr. Quin did really well too. He sat really still and answered all his questions on his own.

He did everything they asked him to do and didn't budge. Such a big boy!!
His report was great too. Strong healthy teeth!
Everyone left the dentist with a couple of cool tooth brushes each, toothpaste, floss, toys and great memories. They came home and wanted to brush and floss all the time. Now they tell me "we need to brush after breakfast, because the dentist said so, mom!" Nice to know he is the authority on teeth and not me!!till later... Nic
