Quadruple Dentist Appointment



So, John is the fun dad that takes the kids to the pumpkin patch to have fun! Where do I take them??? THE DENTIST! In an insane moment 6 months ago, I scheduled a quadruple dentist appointment on a Monday morning for our kids! (seriously, I think that I was thinking that it would be best to get it in before the baby came and to just knock it out in one visit) We dropped our carpool boys off at school and headed to our 8 am visit. On the way, I was thinking "why did I do this?" But as usual the kids proved that it is no big deal to take them places...even the dentist office. They were terrific and they all got great reports....no cavities and GREAT brushing! We did talk about our future orthodontic needs...boy is that depressing, but other than that things were great. This was Reagan's first dental visit and they said that they would just play it by ear. She insisted on sitting in the "banana" chair, so they went ahead and did panoramic x-rays. She was awesome until the last one when the lady accidentally pinched her cheek with the x-ray wing bite. She did NOT like that! So, her exam was done with her lying in the dentist's lap with her legs on me. He said that her teeth look great. She was thrilled to get a prize when she was done. I took her picture with the dentist. She was nervous and would not smile, but it was a cute picture anyway. The dentist office is so much more fun these days. Blayne could hardly contain his excitement as we were driving there because of the video games that are there!!! So, we shall return in 6 months for our next quadruple appointment with a baby in tow....what a site to see!

Seems like we spent the whole summer in the dentist chair:) Boys had multiple trips, I had a root canal. I am glad for the break!
