first dentist visit

Abby went to the dentist!  And LOVED it!  Here she is in the waiting room with a few other toothy friends.

 Relaxing in the chair watching some swimming fishies on the TV before her appointment gets started.
Check out the cool "bib", sunglasses (for the bright lights), and toys! Happy Abby.


Let's pause for a moment and think about how patient and talented someone would have to be to convince squirmy preschoolers to sit still, open their mouths on command, and follow directions during a cleaning.  Given the daily challenge at home of brushing Abby's teeth, this is not a profession that either Papa or Mama would be likely to choose or excel at. But clearly, some people were born to do this! 
Yay Dr. K and team!  And "Mister Thirsty" the little sucking tube thing!  Abby can't wait to go back in 6 months!

Yay for Abby! It's great that she had a good first experience. It makes the next appointments much easier. Nathan is looking forward to his checkup in May(!).
