A Day With Dad

Miles went to the dentist this week for the first time.  I checked around in Martin and found a good option.  We don't have a pediatric dentist but I didn't want to drive an hour just for a dentist appointment every six months....especially if Miles was fine with a dentist in Martin.  I mentioned to Darrin a couple weeks ago, in front of Miles, that we needed to get Miles a dentist appointment and he practically started crying at the thought of it.  So, I chose to rethink the pediatric dentist thing.

I made an appointment at Wild Smiles in Jackson & Darrin took him. You can't get any more kid friendly than this...

There are all kinds of games in the waiting area including XBOX and various brain games...

This is where they clean & examine their teeth.  All the tables point towards this tree in the middle.  He got to pick a toothbrush out before and after...

 

There are also TVs in the ceiling & headphones for the kids to wear...

Dr. Matt drew Woody on a blown up glove for Miles to take home...

Darrin said that everyone went overboard to make Miles feel special.  Miles declared that Wild Smiles was the greatest place ever.   

Darrin decided to take the rest of the day off with Miles b/c he has to go out of town soon.  When they got back to Martin, they went to play disc golf...

 

...and they flew a kite for a while...

...but Miles just wanted to get back to disc golf...

I think it was a perfect day for both of them.
