Trip to the Dentist!

Last week I took Gracie Leigh to the dentist for the first time. I was a little unsure how she would do having to sit still for so long! We went a few days before to Barnes and Noble and picked out a "Going to the Dentist" book. She loved reading it and we talked it up by how much "fun" it would be!:) When we got to the Dr. she did wonderful! I couldn't have asked for her to be any better! She sat in my lap some and then even sat in the chair by herself with me right beside her. She didn't even flinch while the nurse was cleaning her teeth. The nurse was so impressed she just kept letting her take whatever she wanted out of the treat box. We left with three balls, a sticker, ring and of course a toothbrush (I had to cut her off)!:) I am so proud of my sweet girl! All ready to go to the dentist!
