Josiah's First Trip to the Dentist!

Little man had his first trip to the dentist today. (I know we're a little behind on the times here... I've heard you're supposed to take them at age 3, but, oh well- better late than never) They counted his teeth (20) and cleaned them and brushed with flouride. He was very brave and did great! He chose "marshmallow" flavored toothpaste (who knew?) and "Mint" flouride foam, which the dental hygienist thought was pretty funny. I guess most kids choose strawberry or grape- not my boy, he likes mint! :)

He got to dig through the "Treasure Chest" afterwards and picked out a little toy lizard and a tiny paint brush, and got a sticker that says "Brush and Floss" as well as a new toothbrush. He was very excited.
Anyway, I didn't have enough brains to bring my camera, but thankfully there's these handy dandy little cameras on cell phones these days... ;) So I emailed them to myself and here they are:

YAY for his clean and pretty teeth!
