Trip to the Dentist

This morning I took all 5 kids to the dentist! When I made the appointments I told the receptionist that I only wanted to do 2 kids at a time and she said they could take all 4 no problem! When we got there they took Rebecca and Adrian back while I was madly trying to finish all of their paperwork. I hope it's legible but at the time I didn't care. I wanted to get back there because it was Adrian and Charlie's first time to the dentist.
I was so thankful the hygenists were very nice and they had TV's on the ceiling over each chair. Why didn't they think of that when I was a kid! I suppose if a flat screen TV drops on a kid it would do much less damage than the old style TV. Rebecca had one small cavity and Shari needed to get sealants on her molars. Adrian and Rebecca will need some serious orthodontics when they're older and Charlie needs to continue to work on no more thumb sucking.
Dr. Stobbe gave them each a toothbrush (fulfilling all of Charlie's dentist visit dreams) and he also gave them each a little prize. Needless to say, he'll be makin' out like a bandit if he manages to keep our family as his patients!
Donald was very sweet during the visit. He only required a bottle and one diaper change. Unfortunately I left his pacifier in the van so it was my job to lug all 16 lbs of him to each chair to check on each kid and hear the dentists evaluations. I wish I could say I feel myself getting stronger from carrying Donald around all day but he is growing way faster than my body can produce more muscle mass. I can't keep up!
Thankfully we all left the dentist with brighter, whiter smiles!
