First Trip to the Dentist!!

So August started out with a bang, I mean, buzz!!

That is right Ben had his first trip to the Dentist!! Now for Ben the dentist is a long way from the house, down the street to Cedar Hills Dentistry, a whole 1.5 miles, a family dentists office run by our neighbor Dr. Bill:)

Sarah and Olivia took Ben to the dentist, not really knowing how he would do. At home Ben uses his Thomas the train toothpaste and tooth brush, but getting him to actually brush his teeth versus suck on his tooth brush can be a big challenge. Dr. Bill and Stacy, the hygienist, told Ben he has been doing a great job brushing at home and to keep it up, TWICE a day! They told him at night he is supposed to let Mom and Dad help out to make sure all the bad suff gets brushed away!

Here is Ben being a champ with Stacy while she cleans and picks at his teeth!! I can't believe it he doesn't sit still for anything, yet he did a wonderful job for Stacy!! He did have to wear his lucky orange shorts though!!
Here is Ben again, being such a big boy letting Dr. Bill clean and check his teeth and gums.
