Bradlee's Teeth

This is not an official "blog", but I just wanted to update you on Bradlee's bruised front teeth. I took him to the pediatric dentist this morning and after some x-rays, the dentist came in and said it was not trauma. He got out his polisher and the "Scrubbing Bubble cleaner of dentistry" and scrubbed off the "bruise" from his teeth! He said that baby teeth are soft at first, so on some children, the iron from vitamins, food, milk, etc. "sticks" to the soft parts and makes it look bruised. It also explains why the coloring has faded. He polished the teeth and said that it will most likely not happen anymore. Bradlee got a new CARS toothbrush, a Winnie the Pooh and a Tigger sticker, and a glow-in-the-dark bracelet from the toy box! What a great kid. All the nurses were just ooh-ing and aah-ing over him, and of course, he wanted to show off, so he showed them how he says "Please", "Thank You", "More" and "All done" in sign language! Then he gave all of the a high five. What a great kid. I'm so thankful that this was an easy fix!! :)
