Today was Hayden's second dentist appointment to have a filling done. He did soooo good last week. On the way over he asked for a Mario toy to hold, then he asked for his blanket. These are his comfort items. I didn't realize at all that he was nervous to go. When we got there I helped him get in the chair and then went back to the waiting room. I didn't want to be the nervous mom who hangs around and watches everything. It didn't take too long until the assistant came and got me. Hayden wouldn't open his mouth for anything. This was a problem since the dentist had already drilled a hole in his tooth. It took some coaxing but he opened his mouth again and the dentist quickly filled it and was done. It's not pretty but it will work. He was a brave little boy! I felt really bad that he had to have anything done in the first place! Thank goodness for a good patient dentist!
