Only Two Cavities

Lydia and Lukas went to the dentist today for the first time. Lydia needed to go for school and so we thought it was a good time for Lukas too. We have been preparing them for awhile so they wouldn't be scared. But you just never know how they will react when they get there, especially Lydia. 
This morning, we keep telling them they were going soon. When it was time, we brushed their teeth and read a book about it. We just happened to have a Dora the Explorer book about going to the dentist that they got for Christmas so that was the book we read. Todd took them and they did great!! I guess Lydia even did her X-rays all by herself. She did need to hold Todd's hand when the dentist was cleaning her teeth, but that's OK. They even commented on how good Luke did because most kids his age aren't very good. 
Lukas didn't have any cavities which is so good because I thought he would be more like his dad. Lydia just had two little surface cavities which is still good considering she is five and this is the first time to the dentist. Now Lydia is all ready for school. YEA!!
