Dentist

Jaxson had a checkup at the dentist today, he actually loves going to the dentist because he gets a new toothbrush everytime, and he gets to pick a prize out of the treasure chest at the dentists. He was a little disappointed today because they didn't have the thing that he wanted in the treasure chest, he stuck his bottom lip out and started pouting when we walked out of the dentist office, but he quickly forgot that he was supposed to be pouting when we got to the elevator and I asked him to push the elevator buttons for me. When we were walking out to the car Jaxson was telling me how cool it was that the dentist let him push the buttons to make the chair go up and down, and that he got to see a picture (x-ray) of his teeth. He was also very happy that he didn't have any "boo boos" on his teeth aka cavities. He was so busy talking about the dentist that I had a hard time getting him to get in the car so I could buckle him up. Once I finally got him and Ella into the car, Jax said that he was extra cool because HE got to push the buttons on the chair, and daddy doesn't even get to do that when he goes to the dentist! On the way home from the dentist Jaxson was full of questions...
Jax: Mom, daddy is smarter dan you, wanna know how I know dat? Because his head is bigger dan yours.

Me: Is that so?

Jax: YUP! Mom, if one of your bones fall off will you still be alive?

Me: yes

Jax: If ALL of your bones fall out of your body will you just be flat?

Me: probably

Jax: If your really hot and you drink lemonade, will it get all of the hottiness out of your body and make it so your not hot anymore?

Me: Yes, but it's better to drink water when you are really hot.

Jax: Oh, but lemonade tastes better mom. Mom, are my arms sewed on?

Me: No

Jax: Are dey glued on den mama?

Me: No, your funny buddy!

Jax: Well if dey are not sewed on and dey are not glued on, den how do dey stay on mom? When we go to sleep do our hands go to sleep too?

Me: (unable to answer because im laughing too hard.

Jax: If I sleep with my arms under me will it make dem fall asleep?

Me: Probably

Jax: Well den im gonna sleep with my arms under me so dat dey can get some rest because dey are tired.

Me: Are they?

Jax: Yup day are. Mom, did you know dat I can run faster dan dis truck?

Me: I didn't know that buddy.

Jax: I can because im super strong and super fast mom. Because I ate my bitamins dis morning.

Me: Thats good buddy

Jax:Did you know dat da dentist put some stinky stuff on my teeth to make dem strong?

Me: I did buddy, it's called fluoride.

Jax: Sloride?!? What da heck is dat??

Me: It's kind of like vitamins for your teeth, it makes them strong so they dont get cavities.

Jax: Oh, well I didn't like da smell of dat stuff mom.

Me: Im sorry buddy, but at least you got a new toothbrush.

Jax: I know! Dat's cause im super cool mom! I cant wait till I get to go back to da dentist, and dey better have the prize I want out of da treasure chest next time!
