The Dentist!

Today was Cash's first visit to a dentist.

The dentist office was awesome and he never once asked to go home.  

In the lobby there were a ton of fun toys, including an awesome kitchen.


The dental hygienist cleaned his teeth and he only fussed  for a couple of seconds towards the end of the cleaning.  She said his teeth and gums look great, but that we should probably start trying to floss (with a little floss picky thing) in the next couple of months. 

While we waited for the dentist, Buttin drew a picture of pregnant me and Cash thought it was pretty funny.



The dentist  (we'll call him Dr. Groovy) came in and counted Cub's teeth and gave him a little fluoride treatment.  Cub got a little impatient towards the end of the fluoride.  Dr. Groovy said that Cash's huge amount of saliva (drool) production was actually really good for his teeth health - so he might not win a lot of girlfriends with his drool, but he'll have healthy teeth.  Dr. Groovy also reiterated that Cub's teeth were pretty crowded in his mouth and that we should try flossing soon.

Overall it was a really good first trip to the dentist.  I was proud of Cub and he got a bouncy ball from the dentist as a prize.
