Adventures In Dentistry!

Every six months I pack up the two youngest and we make our trip to the dentist for routine cleanings. Under normal circumstances I would never quite call it an adventure… but then again, Michael is getting older. (Insert ominous music here.)

Everything was going like clockwork…

Danielle had her teeth cleaned…





Michael was up next…




And then Mommy got into the chair...




Oh what a delicious time to misbehave! Mom in lock down with a steel tray holding her in, and sharp tools stuck in her mouth! I do believe Christmas had come early to the small devilish one. And then I hear Danielle exclaim, “Mikey! What are you doing!?!”

Trying desperately to escape from my stainless steel entrapment, I smacked my dentist in the forehead and sent the dental tools launching into the room. There was Michael, standing next to the dental chair, with the biggest shit-eating grin on his face. He was minus his pants and shoes.

“MICHAEL!”

Quickly Danielle, accompanied by the dental assistants, escorted the young exhibitionist back out to the waiting room to put on his pants and shoes. The story is that he had spilled some water on his pants while rinsing and was simply uncomfortable sitting in wet pants. (The boy makes a damn good point.) But initially when I asked him, “Why did you do that?” He simply responded,
“That’s what I do Baby… That’s what I do.”








I may have taken the insanity thing a little too far with this one.
I need a drink.

OMG! My five year old grandson is a flasher! I bet he gave those dental gals something funnier to see than some old, scaly, green teeth. I know he gives his old Nana a barrel of laughs. You go Mikey.....lol
