I brought the kids to the dentist back in December and they referred Elias to another dentist to see about a cavity between baby molars. They advised against fillings since they are baby teeth and recommended crowns. So, I got him an appointment for dental surgery today and it's been a day. He slept on the sofa last night so I could get him up and in the car for 5:30 this morning. They gave him some pre-op meds that made him a little loopy before bringing him to the back. He had four teeth pulled and two crowned. It took maybe 5 hours total and the room was freezing. The TV was also haunted because it kept randomly turning on. I ended up unplugging it and fell asleep in my chair, ha. When they brought Elias back, he was just starting to wake up and was so confused with the blood on his pillow. So far, he's feeling good, just tired and sore, but he hasn't complained very much. Brave kiddo. He's enjoying the endless supply of popsicles and we had a beautiful nap together.
