like pulling teeth & a miracle update

We’re heading on up to Connecticut today to pay a visit to an oral surgeon (who happens to be the father in law of a favorite bsquared client) who will be yanking 8 baby teeth out of 2 boys this morning. Wish us luck on that- hopefully it will all go well and smoothly with minimal drama. Why go all the way to Connecticut you ask…well, when I saw the oral surgeon here in NY he let me know that it would be $2160.00 to have those same 8 teeth removed that apparently ‘pop right out’. Well, dude– if they ‘pop right out’ then why are you charging $2000??? So to Connecticut we go…

Then after that fun, we are heading over to see this little guy and Aunt Robin for some sympathy and lunch and playtime (hopefully the boys will be up for some playtime with Eoin as this is the first time they will be meeting him!!). For those of you who blog stalk, you may remember Eoin’s story (found here if you’d like to read his miraculous story of being born at 2 lbs at 24 weeks). Can you even believe the little man is now 14 months old (so 11 months adjusted age) and is doing totally and absolutely phenomenal!! He’s perfect. And so, so smiley! And quite the porker too. And the best part? No real delays, no medications, just all perfect. You know you want to just sqeeeeeeeeze him thru the computer.

I quickly snapped these last week when I visited Robin on the way home from shooting my first gay wedding in CT. Hope to take some better ones (with good light this time) up there today. The boys are so excited to meet Eoin- they’ve waited a year + to get to do it (walking petri dishes and all that- we had to be really careful about not exposing Eoin to anything germy. Like boys). Be on the lookout for some new Eoin pictures again soon.
