Gray goes to the dentist

So I finally got Gray to the dentist today. I think the last time he went was in September. The process of moving and getting insurance set up, etc. put us behind. And of course I wasn't too thrilled about taking him anyway. He doesn't normally do very well in these types of situations.

  1. He HATES to have to sit still as I'm sure most 2 year old little boys do

  2. He doesn't even like to have his teeth brushed by me

  3. He's going through a stage where he is terrified of noises, including the clippers at the barber shop

So I post on Facebook about how "excited" I am about taking him today, and Gordon comments, "Maybe this will be the time he chills out and just sits there...LOL!" Well, I guess he had SOME faith because that's exactly what he did. He was SO good the WHOLE time. Didn't cry not even once. Not only did he not freak out about ANYTHING, he even helped them by opening his mouth, etc. Even the dentist couldn't believe how well he did for his age. I was SO proud.


As soon as we left, he was back to being his rowdy little self and I was left wondering whose child that was in there! But I still love my strong-willed little boy. We took him to In-n-out and Target's dollar section for a reward!
