First Dentist Appointment!

Don't judge me!  This is something we have all been dreading, due to the kids' MASSIVE shyness and being scared of practically everything.  But they did GREAT!!  We went to an awesome pediatric dentist, where they took a lot of time to warm the kids up and showed them exactly what they were going to do, so the kids wouldn't be scared.  They really made them feel like they were a part of the whole thing, which was great! 

Lilly was excited to go first.  She got some cool sunglasses so the bright light wouldn't bother her when she leaned back.
 The dental hygienist let them hold each little "tool" she used to clean their teeth and explained what it was used for.

 Nate got some cool sunglasses too!!
 
 Bub's turn for X-rays!
 They both handled the X-rays like pros!
For right now, everything looked good- no cavities!  The dentist seemed concerned that it looked like some of the adult teeth may be missing on the X-rays (same ones for both of them), but I am just not going to worry about that for now and hope the missing teeth show up SOON!

SO PROUD OF BOTH OF THEM FOR DOING SO GREAT!  NOT ONE TEAR SHED! SUCCESS!
