Today was Seamus' very first trip to the dentist!
He and Daddy prepped all week by reading this book:

Seamus also got to watch Daddy have his teeth cleaned. And of course, ANYTHING Daddy does is super-cool. So Seamus couldn't wait for it to be his turn!
Look at my little guy in that big chair!

A bib? Sure, why not. Dad wore it. It must look awesome.

(You know what else looks awesome? Those
Merrell sandals on his crazy wide feet that cost a bloody fortune, that's what!
Sheesh...anyone want to go into the extra-extra-wide shoe business with me??)

Since the hygienist wore glasses during the cleaning, Seamus got pick out a pair of sunglasses to wear as well. Spider-Man shades...score!

He rocked the cleaning - sat perfectly still and opened his mouth wide.

I am NOT a fan of the dentist at all, so even looking at this pic makes me shudder a little...but Seamus didn't mind the spit-sucker at all!

Picking out a prize after a super appointment...Daddy and Mommy are so proud!

This is a real bravery! Seamus did great! I am impressed. And he kept positive attitude until the end! What a trooper! I love the picture stories like yours, it is so much better to see than just read about something important, That's why I took pictures of Amelia during her sleep study and before CT scan. It will be a piece of history, just liek Seamus' visit to the dentist.
WOW! You are so lucky. I think your idea of prepping a week prior to all things unpleasant (dentist, sleep study) really was a great idea. I love the Merrill's-yes shoes are becoming a huge issue-but has not stopped me from buying like a fiend.
Love the pictures of big boy Seamus! Also love the shirt-Preston has it as well. Seriously I think the boys have identical waredrobes-we my have to plan one matching outfit for the conference. I too hate the dentist so hats off to Seamus!
Seriously Emily - what a cute little bugger! Seamus is an awesome patient :0) Cute pictures, I'm glad his first dentist trip was a success!
Wow! Good to hear Seamus had a great first visit. I need to check out the Merrill's for Aidan's wide feet. Cutest little patient ever!
I just LOVE the sunglasses. They did that for Liz too. I think it's SOO Cute!!
Bravo Seamus!! Emily, he look so cute.
Go Seamus!!! What a brave boy! Ughhh... I hear ya on the wide shoes! Our problem is Sonya is still in a size 1-2 so finding wide in that size is pretty much impossible! I'll have to check out Merrill's though! I love the last pic of your cutie! What a great sparkling smile!!!
Wow, Seamus! Great job, buddy!!! He looks like he's the dentist pro, the way he was sitting in the chair. Ellie LOVES to go to the dentist. I think I'd rather have my yearly pap than to go to the dentist...lol. (Yes, I go twice a year for my cleanings ;) )
What a handsome brave boy! I love the sunglasses idea - Tay and Trace go to the dentist next week, so I think a couple new pairs of sunglasses might be in order! Gotta love buying our boys shoes, I can't get out of the children's shoe store without spending at least $200.
Way to go, Seamus!! He's so adorable, especially in those cool shades! Gotta love it when our kiddos do so much better than we expect with doctor's appointments!
