Dentist!

Today the three older boys all had dentist appointments! Thankfully Monty had the morning off, so he stayed home with Trey so I didn't have to wrestle with him and fill out paperwork! All three of the boys did great! Kory looked so cute in that little x-ray chair! He didn't like his cleaning however and they had to stop halfway through! Kory is a fanatic when it comes to brushing his teeth. He has to spit about 10 times and you have to wipe his face completely clean every time as well, so the whole dental chair was not his cup of tea! I was proud of him for trying. He then showed the hygienist how he brushes his teeth and she said he was actually pretty good for a three year old. She got a kick out of how often he spits. Personally, it's very annoying to me as I'm a get it done kind of mom, but hey...we are all learning patience in our own ways, right! Anyway, Kyle and Kory were cavity free!! Good job guys! Tyler had two cavities, but I already knew that! It's the real reason I made the appointment in the first place! Thankfully they had an opening later today, so we took it and just let Tyler skip school. He was amazingly brave in the chair and the dentist loved him. He said if more adults were that brave his job would be a piece of cake! Tyler loved that compliment! Just one quick question--Does the tooth fairy have to leave money for filled teeth!?

When Kaitlyn had her cavities filled, I took her to the dollar store and let her pick something out! She thought that was great. She also thinks going to the dentist is fun...she feels so grown up when she goes. If she only knew have very little adults like to go to the dentist!
So glad your kids did well! You never know what kind of reaction you're going to get in new situations like that!
