Hayden made his first official visit to the dentist's office yesterday morning! (I say "official" because he did visit a pediatric dentist one time in Trussville when he chipped his front tooth.) We have found a great dentist here in Georgia, and Hayden is finally old enough to start his cleanings. I had been telling him how they would count his teeth and "tickle" them, so he was prepared for that. I did forget to explain about the chair and equipment...oops. He seemed a little unsure of that at first, but after some reassurance from me and the dental hygienist he did great!!!
They were really impressed that he was only 3 1/2 because he didn't cry at all. At the end of the visit, he got to pick a prize and of course got a new toothbrush and toothpaste. We were in and out in about 45 minutes, so that made things a lot easier! He has started saying lately when I ask if he's my baby, "No, I'm a big boy. Livee is your baby". I guess he is getting to be my big boy after all!
