These pictures crack me up-you would think we were doing investigative reporting on Tammy's hygientist skills. Thanks Dad for the great pictures! Thanks Dad for coming! As soon as Eli learned of his impending Dentist appointment he asked everyday if his Papa would be there, and of course his Papa didn't disappoint. Eli was an angel. Perfect the entire time. He didn't so much as whimper about having his teeth cleaned. I was so impressed. I thought he would do well, but not really this well. No worries, little brother will more than make up for our peaceful adventure this morning when he takes his first trip to the Dentist-I promise. Back to Eli, it was surprising to learn that he doesn't have any of his 2-year molars yet, 3 are cutting and 1 is still under the skin.
Eli and I are rarely alone and today was one of those exceptions. As he went over to pick out a sticker, he quickly selected a Spiderman for himself, but then studied them all to see which one would be perfect for Knox. He did the same thing when picking out his new toothbrush. I was so touched today by how little time he takes to consider a "treat" for himself, but is meticulous when thinking of his brother. He never asked if it was okay to take goodies to Knox, it is just automatic for him. Knox sure does have a great big brother!
