Today i took Cori on her very first trip to the dentist. Last night she was full of excitement and questions about seeing the dentist for the first time.
Cori - "Is the dentist a boy?"
Me - "yes"
Cori - "Is he a BIG boy?"
Me - "Yes, he is a big boy"
Cori - "What is the dentist's name?"
Me - "His name is Dr. Jackson"
Cori - "Ohhhhhh, Dr. Jackson"
Cori - "What does he do?"
Me - "Cori, what does a dentist do?"
Cori - "He is gonna check my teef"
Me - "And what do we do when he wants to see our teeth?"
Cori - "We say AHHHHHH and CHEEEEEESE!"
When we arrived she wanted to go right back for her appointment. Good thing we only had to wait about 5 minutes. She got right in the chair and was shown the instruments. Dr. Jackson asked if he could check her teeth and Cori opened right up for him. He did a nice thorough inspection and told me that her teeth looked wonderful and that someone was doing a very good job of brushing them. (Pat on the back for Mommy and Daddy) She has all of her baby teeth, and all of the molars she is supposed to have to this point. When he was finished Cori said thank you and was treated to a bag of dental goodies. Piglet toothbrush, princess stickers, Sponge Bob toothpaste and a dinosaur flosser! Then Cori asked Dr. Jackson if she could stay with him and check people's teeth. He told her to look him up when she needed a job.
It was a great appointment and i am glad i took her. She will be ready to get her first cleaning in 6 months and i hope it goes as well! Just another sign that my little girl is growing up!
