This morning was our first morning of the new year of Bible Study Fellowship. Our mornings went great, and we were actually on time! The boys enjoyed seeing their teachers (Peyton had Parkers teacher from last year, and Parker had Peyton's from last year!), and meeting new friends. This was really the first time I've ever left Joshua, but I think he did fine. He got knocked down a few times by some bigger kids, but I never got called to get him early! Thank you, Jesus, for helping answer prayers for my children to have a good morning, learning about you! Continuing to pray that we all make lasting friendships with some great people who love Jesus as much as we do!
The boys had their first dental appointment today. I did some research on the best local pediatric dentist in town. I chose one that was the most recommended and, of course, the furthest away! They were both so excited, because of the fact that there was going to be trains all over the building. I really thought we'd have no issues, until they took us back. I started talking to the assistant about Parkers gagging/puking, and then got a little panicked! She just started cleaning his teeth and Parker started to pull away, and push her away. It went from not so good to really bad quickly! We decided to try for "pictures" and retry the cleaning later. No go on the pictures, and a no go on anymore cleaning. At one point he looked at me, said "I'm not coming back here ever again!" and walked out the door! Haha!
It was time for the Dr to check their teeth. We did Peyton's first and boy was he a champ! He was so enthralled with the TV in the ceiling, he wouldn't even answer any questions and could care less about what anyone did in his mouth! This still did not help parker relax at all. The dentist did everything to try to loosen Parker up, but it just wasn't working. We decided to try laying him in our laps and holding him down a bit so he could look at his teeth. This was where bad went to THE WORST! He was screaming and crying, and all of a sudden I saw it! Yellow noodles and brown pop coming straight at me! We made the poor guy so upset he threw up his whole lunch. The doc was great and was catching the puke in his hands. Parker was trying to nuzzle up to me, while I was pushing him away to keep the puke off me! It was madness! I remember looking over at Peyton who was just staring at me absolutely dumbfounded!
We got him all cleaned up, they gave him a brand new shirt, some toys and he was fine. He wouldn't let anyone touch him again, but did comply to show the doc the crack in his front tooth! I guess we'll just try this again in another 6 months or so! I'll have to pray, pray, pray until the next time we have to go in!!!!
