first dentist visit

My little man had his first visit to the dentist!
He did amazing....
His momma had put it off thinking he would not enjoy it but I was
once again impressed by his bravery!

Tryin out the shades...
































We did find two cavities and a defect in one tooth.
Mamma was then sweatin it....
Everything is going to be fine though.
We have fillings scheduled for this Tuesday.
Which will be a day that is stretching for mommy and daddy.
(lots of anxiety for daddy bc daddy saw/ took care of gabe at Riley Hospital and so daddy is dreading the process. he has to be givin laughing gas and sleeping medicine.)
However the Lord is in control and we are relying on him.
We actually think the tooth defect is from his stay in the hospital,
due to lack of nutrition while on the feeding tube in Riley and the weeks following.
But oh how I will take a tooth defect over a lots of other things we could have come home with.
The Lord is Good!

It's still amazing how well he did for his first dentist visit. And there's still time for him to improve his dental health, right? On a side note, the monster doll looks cute.
