Today I took Evan to the dentist for the first time. I had made the appointment a few weeks ago after the tooth fairy visited school and delivered brushes, paste and floss for all the kids. He was quite excited about it. I made the appointment for a day that Bruce would be working from home so that I could just take Evan and not have to juggle Logan too. Well, as luck would have it, Bruce needed to go into the office today so off we went, in the middle of Logan's prime nap time, to the dentist. I wasn't sure how it would go but I was hoping for the best.
And the best is exactly what I got! The boys were so good! Evan climbed right up into the hygienist's chair and wasn't scared at all, a bit curious but not scared. He did everything she asked him to do, opened his mouth super wide, rinsed and spit like a pro, and was just perfect for Dr. Dave too! Logan sat on the tooth chair for a bit and then wanted me to hold him. He just looked around, checked everything out and took it all in. It was certainly a proud Momma moment for me! Great to know that our hard work is paying off!! Plus, Evan is part of the "No Cavity Club"! Who says the dentist has to be something to be afraid of?
