You probably won't even recognize her!

Ava just got back from the dentist.  

This is her third appointment and I am happy to say 

she is still under the false impression that the dentist

is super fun and full of complete awesomeness.  

Good luck holding on to that disillusion forever my dear child.  

Here is why she likes it:

first off I take her to a pediatric dentistry,

so it's basically like going to the Disney of dentists.

There are movies to watch in the waiting room, 

every toy you can imagine and everything in the 

office is mini and designed just for kids.

They really know how to handle children.

They get down right on her level and take her at

her own pace.  Also if they have a "trouble" child in they

shield the "still happy to be here" kids from the ones

not having fun, as not to taint their experience.

This is great because Ava is a total sponge, once

she figures out this stuff isn't ALL fun and games

she will be running the opposite direction. 

MARK. MY. WORDS.

Oh and they give her stuff.  Ava loves stuff.

She got a new tooth brush, mouth wash, flossers,

toothpaste, a little sand timer, stickers and THESE:

She loves them, although the mustache kept falling off.

I think she would of worn them all night if she didn't have to hold them on!

Finally she gave up, which was good, I like to see her 
beautiful face!

Norah wanted to wear them too.

But she settled for just the mustache.  : )

Oh and no cavities, but she does have a cross bite.
Apparently that means braces when your 7 or 8.
Seriously?  They have got to be kidding.


I personally like her little cross bite damn it.
