Today was Hyrum's first visit to the dentist. He had a breakdown because he was tired and scared. We tried toys, movies, reasoning, hugging, etc. He kept saying, "I want you to get me out of here." Nothing worked until I held him on my lap and the dentist showed him the polisher and let him feel it on his thumb. It went surprisingly well after that. Hyrum's favorite part was "Mr. Thirsty" that cleaned the water out of his mouth during the cleaning. Zion was, of course, just fine by herself and thoroughly enjoyed her teeth cleaning experience. Ezra was also very quiet sitting in his car seat grabbing his toys.
Dan got to go to the dentist and got a full mouth x-ray for fun. He loves it and he can see that his new teeth are ready to come in!
