First trip to the dentist

I took the girls to see the dentist for the very first time this morning. We saw a very nice Christian man named Dr.McCarty. He and his staff were great!
Izzie did pretty well. The hygentist started by showing her each tool and letting her feel it. She got scared half way into the cleaning and cried a little bit. When the Dr. came in, he"counted"each of Izzie's teeth with his little tool thingie and reported that she had no cavities.
Liza was completely different. Instead of cleaning her teeth with the special tools, the hygentist brushed Liza's teeth with the tooth brush they gave her. That part was semi-tramatic. When the Dr.came to "count"her teeth, Liza lost it! Even though I was holding her with her head in his lap she was terrified. She screamed, full volume, the whole time he checked her teeth. But... At least she didn't have any cavities.
Both girls got to put their names in the "no cavity" bowl for a chance to win a sock monkey. We ended our visit by the girls giving Dr. McCarty a hug. Liza even said, "tanch you, Carty."
Despite the drama,i couldn't be more pleased with their trip to the dentist!
