Say Ahhhhhh!

Took both girls to the denist today. Bella has been before, but today was Caleigh's first visit. As we opened the door to the office and saw Nemo on the tv, the girls were instantly captivated. The mural of the treehouse/birds on the wall leading into a little playroom was so inviting. Bella had no problem. Caleigh on the other hand wanted nothing to do with that dental chair. Pitched a fit over that chair. So...mama laid on the chair with Caleigh on top of me. We did the whole visit that way. She opened her mouth when she was supposed, got her teeth brushed and even did the flouride (all on the comfie mommy couch). At the end they got a little "goody" bag-and boy was it good. They got new tooth brushes and Bella got a magic wand and Cal got a princess crown and a little want.They seriously screamed/squealed in delight when they opened their bags in the office.

The best news is that we had a good report from the dentist (unlike Bella's last years visit). The flossing and wresting the girls on the ground to do so, has paid off.

Caleigh said to me tonight, "Dentist, dentist, go-go"-as she tried opening the door to the garage.
