The Best Dentist Office Ever

Hey, so I keep meaning to post this-- The receptionist at this Dentist office I was referred to talked me into scheduling 4 of my kids at the same time for their teeth checkups. I really am not sure what possessed me to go along with it, but it probably has something to do with the price of gas. But anyway- I was WAY nervous the night before since I knew how much I HATE taking my kids to the Dentist (almost more than I hate going for myself), and that times 4 seemed more than I wanted to take, but I sucked it up and we went. The reason I wanted to tell everyone about this is because it went AWESOME!!! They are TOTALLY equipped for children- movies on the ceilings, toys, little climb on toys in the waiting room, sweet hygenists that are WAY good with kids. I literally sat there with Noah the whole time while they rushed all four of my kids around from room to room getting their x-rays, cleanings, and then to be seen by the Dentist. There was one assistant showing Brad and Luke the fish in the tank, and then one that held Noah for me while I helped the Dentist with Luke- that was the only bad thing the whole time- was Luke didn't go for it one bit. Which apparently is okay since he's only 2 so I'm not gonna let that taint this wonderful experience. It was just INCREDIBLE. I can't express how impressed I was with this place. Charity and Kelly were crying when we had to leave because that place was "so perfect for pretending to be a horse" (they clippety-clopped all through the office- horse stable decor a plus!) It was just so wonderful. And minus the fact that we need to take Charity and Kelly back for more dental work, (unbelieveably Bradley and Luke were the ones with the "perfect teeth" who woulda thought- maybe sugar is actually GOOD for your teeth) I was just in heaven. And the Dentist- don't get me started on him- he of course has 5 kids under 8 so he's totally familiar with what my kids' stages are, totally knows how to talk to them and make them feel comfortable. And he gave me several reassurances that the cavities don't mean I'm a bad mom (am I the only one that feels that way at the Dentist?)- "even his kids get cavities"!! I was just so amazed. Anyway- if you want the number let me know- I'm the new president of their fan club. I'm just so happy things went well. One more thing I am okay doing with all of my kids there- definitely a blessing!
