Dentist

Today was Carson's first time going to the dentist!  I really liked the pediatric dentist we chose.  it's called Atlantis Pediatric.  I think kids can just sense when your go to a Dr. office.  as soon as we got Carson out of the car he started clinging on for dear life and being shy. but  when we walked in the door, the receptionists immediately said hi to Carson and offered him a balloon (his favorite) then they were asking him different questions and helped to make him comfortable.  The dentist also went really slow with him and let Carson warm up a little before he tried to clean his teeth.  when he did, Carson let him brush his teeth for a full minute before he decided he was done!  I'm lucky to get 20 seconds of brushing in at home before he tells me no.  as we were leaving they gave Carson a little toothbrush and a bouncy ball!  after that he was blowing them kisses and waving and completely showing off. I think we're off to a good start!
