We recently had our bi-annual round of dental check-ups. Of course, I do not intend to blog every six months regarding the state of our children's pearly whites, but this time was special. This time, Park had his very first visit to the dentist's office on the OTHER side of the door!
Needless to say, he was both nervous and excited. He peppered his more knowledgable older brothers with questions regarding their prior experiences.
He obviously did not like some of their answers.
Payne found the waiting room to be a little lacking in kid friendly reading material, so he decided that now would be a good time to catch up on what Justin Timberlake was doing these days. I found this to be pretty humorous, so I snapped a photo for posterity and then proceeded to hide the magazine away under a stack of more age-appropriate literature (using that term loosely).
They finally called all of the kids back, and Park got to meet his hygienist.
After having his teeth counted, he picked the cherry flavor toothpaste over the mint and the cinnamon. He especially thought it was fun to have "Mr. Thirsty" suck all the water out of his mouth.
After receiving a glowing report from the dentist, he got to choose a toothbrush and a brushing timer, and of course, the real loot, a bouncy ball that he got with his token.
I wish every visit to the dentist office ended with the patient smiling this big!
