Harrison's First trip to the dentist

Today we ventured to the dentist. I've been practicing with him to say "ah" and show his teeth. Well it really didn't matter because when you scream at the top of your lungs, your teeth show anyways. The dentist said it was perfectly normal for him to react that way and that he probably would until he is 3. 3, really??? Harrison still only has 4 teeth and this is the main reason I went ahead and took him. I don't know if you know, but my teeth always have issues so I wanted to make sure there were more than 4 in there. He is getting 2 molars on the top, the bottom gums are swollen where his molars will be soon, and he is cutting 2 on the bottom. No wonder the little guy isn't sleeping well at night. But, the dentist said his teeth looked good and there were definitely more in there. Also a little random thing, but Ben and his mom both do not have the 2 teeth on either side of their front teeth. These on Harrison haven't tried to come thru and the dentist doesn't think Harrison has them either. He said it was no big deal but usually those come in before the bottom ones and he is getting the bottom ones now so we shall see. They won't do x-rays until he is 3 so we will just wait and see what happens. He did get a sticker even though he freaked out!
