The Dentist

After a little encouragement from one of the greatest aunts, (and by this I mean her flat out telling me to quit being a baby and do it) I called and got Cade his first dentist appt. I HATE going to the dentist even for a cleaning. I hate the smells, the sounds, and the pain. I called a place here in Amarillo called Koolsmiles. The night before his appt. people all over started telling me all these horror stories about the place I had picked. I was soo nervous for him. I kept telling myself to act like it was going to be the greatest thing since Coca-cola and Hershey's chocolate so that Cade wouldn't be scared. However, my stomach was so sick that morning. Well we go in and I fill out pgs. and pgs. of paperwork while Jeff tries to entertain Cade. As soon as I get them filled out they are already calling us back. The office was very kid friendly when we got to the back. They had cute animals painted on the wall. In the room where they clean teeth they had it painted with all kinds of fish and ocean creatures. Cade cried and was scared to death. However, since it was his first time I thought he did spectacular. The hygenist was very sweet and the dentist was nice and gentle with Cade as well. When he was done he got a new toothbrush, a dinosaur flosser, and a toy out of their toy bucket. Then he went to the room with a pig painted on it and got his picture made for the "No cavity wall." I was sooo proud of my little prince. We already have his next cleaning scheduled for April and I know that it will go great as well. Thank you so much Shelly for being my cheerleader. :)
