Clean Teeth and PT

Both boys had dentists appointments today. Justin took the day off so we all went to the appointment. While I was filling out paperwork Justin read a book to Carter about what would happen during the visit (Tyler was busying playing). When the boys got called back they went in with no issues. Tyler came out first and asked where Carter was. He told me they weren't in the same room. A few minutes later Carter came out along with the dentist. The boys both did great and neither of them have cavities. Carter also did well enough that he got a fluoride treatment. Both boys were very excited to play with all the treasures they got from the dentist - new toothbrushes, toothpaste, stickers, and a toy. The pictures of the boys are them showing off their clean teeth.

From the dentist appointment we headed over to Tyler's first physical therapy (PT) appointment, which is the reason Justin took off. We were there a little early so we had to wait in the waiting room, but the boys behaved pretty well. All four of us went back to the gym. Carter was a little sad that he couldn't participate, but the therapist let them do a few things together. Tyler seemed to enjoy the hour long session, with getting to get on the treadmill as his favorite part. They stretched him some, which he didn't like, but Justin was glad to see this part. In hamstring mobility they want at least an 80 degree mobility and Tyler was only 60. In Tyler's ankle extension they want at least a 20 degree and Tyler only has 10. So we definitely need to work on getting those muscles less tight and more flexible. It was very nice Justin was there and understood all of this. I was also excited we all could go so I could see what his session looks like. From now on Carter and I will probably stay in the waiting room while Tyler goes in alone. We are going to be doing a lot of exercises at home and hopefully we won't have to have therapy for too long of a time. I am glad we are getting this taken care of now however.
