Ollie went to the dentist today! He went for the first time when he was 1.5 and the iron drops he was taking turned his teeth gray. That appointment was h-e-double-hockey-sticks-ish. Not sure if it was worse for Mama or for Ollie. But today! Today Ollie was a champ! You all may know that Mama once fainted at the dentist, she's so scared of them, so we're hoping Ollie won't have the same issues with evil teeth cleaning doctors. And if today was any indication, he'll be fine. He sat in the chair all by himself, said "ahhhh" like we practiced at home, and then watched Cars the whole cleaning, scraping(!) and flouriding time. (Sunglasses provided by the dentist.) Afterwards he said, "That was fun, going to the dentist!"
Thank you Tracey. Did he get to keep the glasses. I want to go to that dentist. All mine gives me is a toothbrush.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, Ollie! You did much better than your buddy Milo when the instruments came out.
