I packed up to take Luke to Istanbul, but first ( the night before ) our friend Ayuba came over. Drew met him (from Nigeria) playing basketball and it was so good to see and spend time with an African again.
They had lots to talk about.
The next morning, this little travel bug thought she was going somewhere.
She gave us the biggest pouty lip at the airport when we didn't get her out and take her with us.
Luke has hyper-mineralization on his teeth, it's and idiopathic condition that makes the enamel very soft. It's a genetically passed though Drew and I don't have problems it was passed down somehow. At least for his baby teeth. So he had 3 cavities that needed fixing. So he had to be put under to do it. He needs these teeth till he's eleven so we couldn't wait too long.
This is my loopy boy before he went back for his outpatient procedure.
he's not sad just out of it.
Dr. Ferhan did a great job, and actually fixed 5 teeth while she was in there so we might not have as many problems later. He had 2 root canals on major molars, and 2 cavitites fixed, and one patch on his canine.
Afterward he woke up a little upset because Daddy wasn't there.
But after about and hour he was begging to go and glad to be done. With no pain we headed to Shake Shack for a milkshake.
My sweet friend Jess spent the whole day with us and was my support when I needed her.
He had fun the rest of the day playing with the kiddos.
The next day, we had one more check up and made it to the airport to head home.
