That's right, we went to the dentist! I have actually been dreading this from the time Kenadie turned two when our pediatrician recommended we visit the dentist, just for a check-up. Well... she will be two until October, so I guess we technically followed our doctor's order :) I opted to wait until she was "mature" enough to somewhat understand and be forewarned as to what we were going to do. I would say overall, she did pretty well. She didn't quite hold up to her end of the deal totally, but at the same time, it was nowhere near the disaster it had the potential to be. I realize that no children enjoy going to doctor visits, however; we were the EXTREME patient who would nearly throw up from getting SO upset. I picked up on from her doctor once that she was a pretty severe case-ha! We're getting there though :)
She couldn't see--too bright.
She had a GREAT time in the waiting room... wouldn't you have :) I'll say it was pretty tempting when she invited me to "come aboard the ship, Mom." :) And on the subject of "Mom", I would appreciate it if she went back to calling me "Mommy" like any two year old should??? I certainly haven't encouraged this "Mom" talk in the least! I always refer to myself as "Mommy" :)
She managed to dry up her tears enough to see the toys in the treat box. She chose purple play-dough!After our visit to the dentist, we met our dear, dear friends for lunch, and that made EVERYTHING better!
The End :)
Oh, I dread that day! I just know Jackson will be terrible. You're going to have to message me and tell me where this clinic is. Looks awesome! Glad she did ok-and you, too ;)
