Courtney goes to the dentist

Still playing blog catch-up. Courtney had her first dentist appointment on June 10th this year. Yes, we waited until she was 3. She did awesome and has what the dentist call the "Hollywood smile". Great for cuteness as a 3 year old. Not so great when her big teeth get here. Braces will be in her future, luckily she already wants them, since Mommy has them. Courtney went to Dr. Ward. AWESOME! Click the pic below to check out their site. He is a great dentist and his girls are great with kids. They even took xrays! No cavities and she is a good brush-er (well, I am). Little known fact even I didn't know. The dentist recommends brushing your child's teeth for them until they are....ready??? TWELVE!!! He says to let them, but to also do it for them after they are done. Until 12! Sorry baby girl...you'll be going to 5th grade after I brush your teeth.

We told her to lay down...she tried laying on her belly.
Checking out the "sucker thingy".
Getting her first official cleaning.
By the end, she was a pro at the "sucker thingy".
