Going to the dentist...

Ella had her first visit to the dentist today. She did GREAT! She watched mama get her teeth cleaned first. She was very interested in the "noises" at the dentist office and a little worried, too. When it was her turn, though, she was super brave. She sat on mama's lap and opened wide...well, at least until the dentist got close to her mouth. Then, she would clamp it shut so that he couldn't get his hands in there. After several tries, she finally got the hang of it. By the time we left, she had more toothpaste, floss and toothbrushes than WalMart. Needless to say, the dental assistants LOVED her. They even gave her a bottle of water on the way out. On the way home, she told us that she would need to floss when she got home because "that's what the lady said." Wish it were that easy around here...I can't imagine her saying that she needs to pick up her toys because "that's what mama said"...hahaha!
