Today was Cameron's first interaction with a Dentist. I forgot to pre-warn him, and so when he woke up first thing this morning, he got the news. I tried to make the news uplifting, but he wasn't buying it. He cried, and said he didn't want to get a shot. I assured him that all was going to be okay and that there was nothing to be afraid of. It kind of worked. He walked into the dental room just fine, but he was not about to lay down in "the chair." Instead he agreed to straddle me and laid his head on the dentist's lap. After some convincing, he let her peek into his mouth and the census was he has great, healthy teeth. Yay! Cameron enjoyed playing with the office mascot, Mr. Lion. Mr. Lion comes complete with a large set of teeth and a very cool over sized toothbrush for the kids to play. It was very entertaining.

Dentists are awesome now a days. my boys think it's a treat to go.. i hate and have a good reason too. thats why i still cover up my mouth when i talk sometimes.. i was scarred with all my dentist visits..(i knocked my front tooth out as a litl one... long story) anyway looks like he did great.. hope you are doing well. love your family pictures.
ReplyDeleteToo bad he didn't come to see his Aunt Marie and Aunt Joyce- it would have been lots of fun!
