New teeth, part 1
This morning we took Emma to the dentist, bright and early, to get her front 4 teeth fixed. She wasn't allowed to have any food or water before, so we gave her a binky and she didn't even notice. Once Daddy got home and disposed of the dead mouse in the backyard, ("Daddy will help us" came in very handy ;)) we headed out. She did really good for the most part. They took her vitals and let Daddy give her the medicine. I wasn't sure it was working yet, Steven was....but when the dentist came to check on her and she looked up, her head went all the way back, bumped her head on the wall, she couldn't even hold it up. We took her to the room where they had a nice soft, fluffy blanket for her to lie on, and a Frozen blanket to cover her with. So I laid her down, we kissed her and told her night night....she gave a big silly smile. Steven left to get some stuff from Walmart and Chink-fil-a for breakfast. After a little while she started having trouble...which they warned us would happen because little kids get tired of sitting like that and the groggy stuff begins to wear off. She was really screaming for a while, and even when we came to get her she was pretty upset, the dentist said it was probably because of the numbness. I took her out to the car while Steven did the paper work stuff, and we snuggled and had a bite of chocolate pudding. She looked really tired and just wanted to snuggle. She cried on and off the whole way home, but once we got back she finally settled down in my lap and we watched Curious George. So far she has had almost two glasses of milk, a little chocolate pudding and some yogurt. She is currently watching George and playing with her blow-up pink dolphin they gave her...which is almost as big as she is. They were able to put crowns on all 4 teeth. We will try to get a picture, but it may be a while. They are pearly white though!
