A trip to the dentist

Yesterday Cloie and Carter had their dentist appointments and I was a little anxious to deal with both of them alone there. They get nervous and scared and so I wasn't sure how they would react or how it would all turn out. They called us back and decided to do Cloie first since she was bigger and was actually going to get a cleaning. Both times before she needed me right by her to hold her hand, but I didn't have Carter with me so I could focus entirely on her. This time I had to hold Carter to keep him from getting into things so I couldn't sit and hold her hand. Well she climbed up into the chair by herself and opened her mouth, ready to go. She had x-rays done, then they cleaned her teeth, and then they did the fluoride treatment. She didn't complain once and she actually answered them they talked to her. Usually she just hides her face shyly when people talk to her. I was so proud of her. She even asked the dentist what eating lots of candy would do to her teeth. She is such a big girl, they let her pick 2 prizes. Carter on the other hand, did not enjoy the dentist at all. He squirmed and fussed the whole time the dentist was checking his teeth. But he got a prize too which made it all better.
