first trip to dentist

Isaac had his first dentist appointment. We loved her. She is a Pediatric Dentist here in Woodinville so everything is kid friendly and she has a son two months older than Isaac so she "gets it." She was so good with Isaac and gave us her personal cell to call anytime if we had an emergency. Isaac did awesome letting her examine and brush his teeth. This was good for Peter and I to see as it had been an ongoing battle with Isaac letting us brush his teeth but for her he just laid back and let her do whatever without protest. Times have changed since I was a kid because they sent us home with a whole tube of Toms of Maine toothpaste. I was a happy camper because not only is it flouride free it is Xylitol free which I recently learned can upset their little tummies and is in most "natural" toothpastes. Something clicked in his little head since his appointment because now he wants to brush himself like a big boy. We have a little ritual morning and night where he stands by himself on the stool and brushes is own teeth (after mom brushes first of course) and then he brushes his own hair. He is getting so big and wants to be so independent and do it himself to by like mommy and daddy. This is probably the last "naked" picture we could get away with, I couldn't resist, Isaac I apologize for you in advance when you are 16.
