Ella's First Dentist Appointment

Ella went to see Marcy, our family dental hygenist and friend,





Here she is with Mr. Thirsty. Note her pet polar bear Chilly in the lower right corner. He also went to the dentist.





In my estimation, this is a big deal, going to the dentist. Luckily, Marcy was incredible (with two young children of her own, we weren't surprised) and Ella loved the names she made up for all the tools. Ella was very serious and didn't speak to Marcy for almost the entire appointment but then she would turn her head toward us and give the biggest grin. She was very proud of herself as you can see.




Here's the big clean smile!






And who would go to the dentist without the bribe of a new toothbrush? Ella choose blue. Maya slept in the corner in her car seat pushing aside thoughts of those pesky teeth that will push through her gums.
