HI Dentist!


Today was Jaxon's first visit to the dentist and he was a super CHAMP!! There are a couple of posts to come like his birthday last week, happy 2!, and our FUN trip to California...cross your fingers I get them up this weekend :)
But back to - today! I can't believe that he was awesome for his first visit today. Last week I bought him a Dora book that is all about going to the dentist to help prepare him for today...(Jaxon loves Dora's show and books, so I thought that this book might help...and it totally did!) He was so excited be at the office and meet the dentist! He stayed in the chair and opened his mouth wide..."abre!" He let the dentist count his teeth and then he let the assistant brush, floss and paint the vitamins on!! YAY JAXON!!! Not one fuss?! They couldn't believe it since he just turned 2...for being so great he got to pick out 2 things from the basket :) how COOL! haha. He didn't want to leave! I took Jax to probably the best pediatric dentist office ever! When will was doing his internship here while we were engaged he did the remodel on this office and built the founding dentist's home (he is now re-tired). But this office is TOO cool. They have everything...several video game stations, fish tank, a huge ball roller coaster, a train that rides around the whole lobby, nooks built into the wall with activities everywhere...it was perfect! The rooms were equipped with tv's and for older kids video games were avaible...I want to play video games while they are drilling my teeth!!! Darn I am too old to be a patient :(
It is such a great feeling when your child has a good experience with something that you dreaded as a kid. I am proud to say that Jaxon has healthy gums and teeth!!
Great jod today JAX!! I LOVE YOU!

What a cute family! Hey guys how are you? We just got in touch again with Derik and Amanda and saw your link on their blog. We've been wondering what happened with you guys since BYU-I. So you have one handsome boy and another baby on the way, awesome! We're living in Longview, Wa where Travis finished his intership and now is an offical School Psychologist. It's a city between Seattle and Portland. Anyways, we're so happy we found you and we have a family blog too. It's www.travisjoannjimmyjordan.blogspot.com, check it out if you want to.
