i finally made an appointment for miles to go to the dentist. i wasn't sure at what age he was suppose to go, and he probably should have gone earlier, but we finally made it. i took him to a place called dentistry for children it has an under the sea theme with pirates and all that fun stuff, right up miles' alley. now i have to admit, i hate the dentist, but i had to make sure miles didn't know that. i prepped him on everything he could expect. i let him know about the moving chair, x-rays, the buzzing toothbrush, bubble gum flavored toothpaste, etc. he was totally prepared and it paid off, miles was AWESOME. he was very comfortable and cooperative (thanks goodness). the cutest thing i thought was after he had his teeth cleaned he looked at me and said "i love you mom", then he smiled really big and whispered to me, "look at my teeth." he was so proud and happy to have clean teeth. when he got home from the dentist, i think he brushed his teeth 4 more times throughout the day, it was pretty funny. of course i took pictures...

The best part of the day was Miles telling me that he could no longer eat candy, soda, gum and then brushed his teeth throughout the evening. He was very serious until dessert time, he still wanted his ice cream really, really bad.
