Dental ickiness

Natalie did a great job! I am so proud of her. She had to have iv sedation for multiple cavities, big ones. Before you say to yourself, "man, she is a crappy mom for not brushing her teeth," rest assured, we do brush her teeth. The teeth that were worked on are less than 3 months old and just came in not formed correctly for whatever reason. The anesthesiologist told us that she would need a shot of sedative to get the IV in, but I asked him to try without it since the recovery would be easier. No problem at all! She sat there telling us about her Slip in Slide, happy as can be. No tears at all, even when they put in the IV. She came out of the sedation crying, but we are home now. She is acting 100% normal. Of course, "Normal" in Natalie's case may at any time mean screaming, laughing, yelling, or giggling. Baby Jenny and Natalie are jumping up and down currently "dancing."
