The Dentist....Ugh.

So Boston and I both had dentist appointments today. I have to say I was happy and relieved to find that I had zero cavities...I think that is a first for me. It's ok though...I am still paying on my last dentist visit, what like 8 months ago when I had 5 cavities. Seriously. I wasn't quick to get too excited though because I had to wait and see what they had to say about Boston. Well, he did awesome the whole time. But the annoying part is that every single one of his molars has a cavity. So we are talking the kid needs 8 fillings. Yes you read correctly....8! Ugh....so now we are meeting with a pediatric dentist to see if it wouldn't be easier, and less traumatic to do it with him because they would just put him out and fill all 8 teeth in one appointment as opposed to going to our normal dentist 4 different times to have the teeth filled. I am frustrated. How can we afford this? Even with insurance? I can't imagine this is going to be cheap....AND is it always going to be like this with his teeth? Did I pass my horrible teeth on to him?! I hope not.

Oooohhh....that TOTALLY sucks! Marlee's was last week and I was SO relieved that she didn't have any cavities! I have terrible teeth too, I hope my girls don't ever get them. I would go for the knock out with Boston....I know Marlee would FREAK having to sit through all that! Poor guy...

Aren't they his baby set anyway...won't they fall out and he'll get adult ones. I hate spending money on stuff like that!
