We love Dr. Henry!

Samantha had a dentist appointment today and she was so excited!! Now I don't know about you but when I was a kid, the last place I wanted to go was to the dentist! She actually loves it. When it started to rain I said, "awww... today is a stay home day" and she said, " But we are still going to see Dr. Henry right??" The crazy part is that yesterday when she was brushing her teeth, I looked in her mouth to check her work and I saw 2 molars in the back of her mouth half way up to the other molars. I did a double take and then went on the internet to read about these "six year old" molars. Sure enough, they are her 6 year molars. She is only 4 soon to be 5.

I asked Dr. Henry about this today and he said, the average age for these teeth is 6 years old, and he has never seen any kid have them this early. YIKES! She got her first teeth at 4.5 months which is also early. I guess she is on the early path. ( I was too so it could be genetic) Anyway.. this is last year's photo but I wanted to share a pic of Dr. Henry who is incredibly nice and patient, and who Samantha adores as her dentist!

He puts these glasses on her when he uses the light to look in her mouth. The pose is all Sam's doing!

Right after she finished she went into the toy cupboard ( she remembered where it was from last time) and got out the doodle toy and drew a picture of her visit. It is Dr. Henry with the spikey hair, Sammie with her bib on and a heart which looks like a tooth. I thought this was too cute not to share!

She was an awesome patient today. Got x-rays taken, flouride, brushed, and flossed and came out with a smile! I took her to lunch afterwards as a reward.

Last week, when we had lunch with Irene and Betty, they gave her this Valentine craft project. We had fun assembling it the other day, and of course Sammie had to "make it her own" by adding a white and pink horse!

Here is an example of my everyday "Ponyville".. This happens to be in my bedroom, so now I have outlawed "PONYVILLE" in my room. LOL
This is an acrylic album I made and will be teaching as a class soon. It has lots of sparkly embellishments and was a ton of fun to make!! Check back for class details.

By the way, there are only a few more days to do the sketch challenge on Scrap it forward. There are some great prizes so give it a try!

Lastly, Tracy P tagged me on her blog to answer these questions using my first initial which is quite challenging since it is "I". I just happened to come across "Diva Scrapper's" blog whose real name is Ivon, and she did the same post. It gave me a few ideas.. Anyway.. here goes:
