TJ's Happy Visit to the Dentist!

Mom and Alli had a dentist appointment today and TJ got to come along for his "Happy Visit" as my dentist office calls it. I though that was cute. This means he comes to watch mommy have her teeth cleaned, gets to sit in the super cool chair for a ride, has his teeth counted and practices getting his teeth cleaned if he tolerates it...

Fortunately, he waited as patiently as possible while it was mommy and Alli's turn and then it was his turn to climb up into the chair and don the awesome sunglasses. I was just sure that he would complain about the bright light in his eyes and get scared when the hygienist turned on the electric tooth polisher (bright light in his eyes and unexpected noises are 2 of his least favorite things), but he surprised me just as he has time and time again in the past at the hair salon and the doctor's office. He was very well behaved and thought the whole experience was fun just like Alli did the first time- phew!!

Now that's cooperation!! She was able to do a quick version of the whole nine yards.

So this video is not as long as I thought it was, but I was just so proud of how well he was doing that I had to capture a little bit on film.

We were all in and out in an hour and had some time to kill before meeting Daddy for lunch. We were about 5 minutes away from the zoo so I decided to take the kids to ride the train through Brackenridge park. I've been wanting to do that for a while and this was the perfect time.

Then we enjoyed a yummy Mexican lunch and had a nice visit with daddy. It was a very successful day all around. Yay!
