Logan had her first "real" dentist appointment this week. We took her last year but it was a very basic, preliminary look at her teeth. This time she got a full cleaning and had a big visit with the dentist.
We love the dentist we've got here! Dr. Buddy is so fantastic with kids. If you're in the WF/Raleigh area, I would send you to Triangle Pediatric Dentistry in a heartbeat. They had me fill out a questionnaire prior to coming about her interests. So, while he was checking her teeth he kept describing different princesses that he was finding in her teeth and having her guess which ones he was talking about. They were protecting her teeth against the cavity monsters. :) It was fantastic and put her so at ease. At the end of his visit with her he painted crowns (fluoride) on for the princesses and all she could talk about for days were the crowns that were on her teeth.
At the end of the appointment they gave her a big girl token and let her go put it in a prize machine of her choice. Of course, she beelined for the princess one. When she turned the nob an got the ring out she looked at me and said, "I love this, but I'd like to have my money back, please." Maybe we need to start a piggy bank for her.
She came home with a great report, no cavities, super clean teeth! We'll head back in about 6 months for another checkup.
P.S. We didn't do any pre-schooling this week. Mike was home a little more than normal this week and since he's leaving next week we spent a little extra time with him. We'll study the letter I in the coming week and she's itching to get started!
