We took the girls to their very first dentist appointment this morning. We've been talking it up to them for several weeks now, since I was dreading that they would completely freak out. So every morning for the past couple weeks, they'd wake up and say, "I go dentist now!!??!" heehee.
So finally, the day was upon us and they were a bit unsure walking in...
... that is until they saw how completely AWESOME this dentist office was! It was like a little kid's playland DREAM! The whole waiting area was filled with toys and dollies and a play kitchen and grocery carts and trinkets and stickers and Dora the Explorer playing on the flat screens... wheewww. Needless to say, the girls warmed right up to the joint.
you can see their little heads peeking out from behind that counter - they were playing in the "kitchen".
I thought this was the cutest way to display childrens' art. I'll have to remember this for when we have a house and a playroom - I had Rob take mental notes so he could make this for me.
Video - right before we were taken back to the room:
Olivia went first because,... well because Caroline insisted, "No! Sissy First!!!" Liv was being shy and was pretty hesitant when we had to sit in the chair. She was a trooper, but was scared so I ended up having to hold her the whole time.
But Caroline surprised the heck out of me! She was so excited for her turn and cooperated with the dentist so well! She sat on her own like a big girl and kept her mouth open on command. She loved it! And they both couldn't wait to get to school this morning to tell their teachers and all their friends.
