Dentist back in December! I might have had to take them at two different times during the day to accommodate school schedules but that’s ok. We got it all in!
Clean teeth, no cavities. Check check!
Clean teeth
What more could a kid want to do on the very first day of summer than go to the dentist, right? At least we got it out of the way for another 6 months…
No cavities and mostly great reports…one particular child needs to do a little better job brushing but he’s on it now! Smile!
Boot camp
Well, Maxwell had a boot when he was 2, Spencer had a boot when he was 7, so Samantha didn’t want to be left out and got a boot last week!
She hurt it jumping on the trampoline – with a ball – last Friday. She played her soccer game the next day on it but it hurt pretty bad. When she was still complaining Monday after school I decided it was time to go to the doctor. We went up to OS1 which is a pediatric walk-in orthopedic clinic and it was fantastic. Thankfully nothing is broken. She just has some strained ligaments and needs to wear a boot for 7 to 10 days. That deserved a pink drink from Starbucks of course!
She made the best of it at school last week…
Even wore that boot for PJ day!
Then she decided to play in her soccer games this past weekend. We wrapped it up and she managed but she’s got the boot back on this week and still staying out of tumble.
It will be all healed up soon and she’ll be back good as new in no time.
Smile!
Big day here last week…Samantha’s smile went from this…
to this!!
She got her expander out and braces off!! No more braces – for a few years at least – for this girl! She only had to wear them from September to March – not bad!
What a pretty, pretty smile….and looks way too grown up now!
Smiley Samantha!
Maxwell’s round 1 braces off here!
Checkup
Samantha had her 9 year old doctor checkup two weeks ago and she’s healthy and growing! Samantha is 4’3” (51 inches) and 61 lbs. She’s 27th % for height and 37th % for weight. Last year she was 49 inches and 56 lbs so she grew 2 inches and 5 lbs in a year. She’s strong and healthy!!
The boys at age 9 – Maxwell was 52 inches tall and 58 lbs and Spencer was 54 inches and 63 lbs.
No shots thankfully and she handled the finger prick MUCH better than last time! That deserves a pink drink for my girl dressed in all pink!
Always thankful for good doctor reports.
