So a couple of weeks ago Kate went back to the dentist to get her first filling! We weren't really too sure how well Kate was going to react to the numbness or the pain if any. So Corinne took the morning off and took her to the dentist.
However, apparently she did extremely well.
She did super good through all her prep and by the time the dentist was ready to come in and start drilling,
Kate was all smiles.
(The dentist drilling and doing a few last minute touches.)
So anyways, at first we thought it might have been a traumatic episode full of fit throwing and crying and just really bad, and I was hoping at some point she would just be tired and want to sleep or cuddle if anything; however, she was all over the place! You would have thought that someone gave her crack instead of the numbing medicine they give you. All day long she was hyper. She couldn't even take a nap after she got back form school! It was quite funny. Corinne and I were not prepared for this type of reaction. However I guess this was a much better reaction then the one we were expecting.
So Kate is doing great! We have been monitoring the amount of sugar and gummies she eats and got her some pink Barbie mouth wash that she looks forward to doing every time she brushes her teeth.
However Lynn and Gary are here and it has been a little more tricky to watch her sugar intake however I have decided that if she happens to get another cavity soon, we're blaming them.
