Nathan at the Dentist

I just spent 3 hours at the dentist with Nathan today... 2 days ago it was 2 hours for x-rays.. geeez... for a kid with good teeth they sure spent alot of time on him.

Today they did a cleaning, and to fill 4 cavities, but they could only do 2 because Nathan just about passed out after the 4th shot of novicane! He is a trooper, doesn't have a problem with needles or the dentist, but the 4 shots were a little overwhelming for him. After the 3rd one, he was lying there STILL as can be and I thought there was a problem.. the dentist asked him if he was ok and he wasn't responding at all, I told the dentist to STOP and I got up and went over to him and he wasn't doing anything.. I thought he passed out! He was fine, he was just in shock over the pain of the needle going in.. he was so numb he could't talk. He did good though... he has the whitest teeth :)

Nathan is my little trooper... he had 9 teeth pulled when he was 4 years old from a deficiancy when he was a baby.... so he knows the ropes of the dentist.
Well that was my interesting day...... dont you just LOVE the sound and the smell of a dentist office?? NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He wanted me to take photos of his clean white teeth hehehe.. he is so proud of himself.

So Sorry... I need to post more

Hey Friends... well first off I am in the process of making a new blog.... i am moving over to WORDPRESS.... I will give you guys the link when I am finished... I am taking my blogging to a whole new level... I can't wait for all of you to see it.

2nd.. the reason I haven't been blogging as much is because I have come face to face with one of my biggest fears since finding out I was born with a heart disorder and that being me possibly having to have open heart surgery. My aorta has enlarged since I was first tested in 2006 and they want to get a closer look. I have tests to take, I am going in for a Aortic CT angiogram. This will give us all the info we need to see if my aorta has dialted and how much. I will know alot more results next week. I am scared yes, I have many things going through my mind, but I have the best support through this.

I will keep you all up to date and I will also give you guys the link to my new blog i am working on... hopefully it will be done this weekend.

Starting the 200 Sit-Up Challenge

As you all know, I have done the 100 pushup challenge.. now I am doing the 200 situp challenge.. which is going to be easy seeing I can do about 800 a day.. but to do 200 in a row is what I am aiming for. I took the initial test already and did 80 in a row.. which means, I have to start on week 3 because I already can do 80 in a row.. so this will be a 3 week challenge for me.. of course I have to ask my DR if I can do it seeing some things have changed.. but I hope I can.

Here is the website if you are interested in doing this challenge with me
