This morning, Gabe went to his dental appt. He didn't like it. In fact, I am fully convinced that the boy is traumatized. He started crying as soon as he saw the dental assistant. And started crying when he saw the dentist.
However, despite this, the visit went well overall. How, you ask? He got his teeth bathed well in the fluoride treatment, and the doc got a good look at his teeth. They are all in the same condition they were in last time, which is good, because we don't want it getting worse.
One tooth, the one that got chipped, had some staining and doc wanted to make sure it was just staining, but in order to do that, he needed to poke it. But, because Gabe was not happy, and we were able to get the treatment on well, doc probably didn't want to press his luck.
If it can be called luck, because Gabe really did cry a lot.
So, we are going back in June, and doc said to just watch that tooth. It's possible that the staining he saw was chocolate because Gabe ate a portion of a chocolate chip flax seed muffin for breakfast (I did brush them afterwards). I didn't tell doc that, though.
So, Gabe recovered quickly. He's a trooper.
Craig has doctor appointments all this week, all related to physical therapy. In addition to PT, he is getting acupuncture, active release technique (ART), and ultrasound. We'll report later in the week how things go.
I wrote a blog post today on my Cafe´au alit blog about a controversy surrounding coverage of a women's blogging conference in Baltimore. Some women bloggers, many of them mothers, felt the article was biased and condescending (it certainly didn't help that it was placed in the fashion and style section, instead of the business section).
Let's see…nothing else to report. I am making mental plans for Easter dinner, but haven't consulted with anyone yet. I do need to do that, though.
