Emma at the Dentist!

Emma had her first trip to the dentist this past week! She was so excited! All she knew was her big sister went to the dentist and came back with 4 prizes and a new toothbrush! Emma loves to brush her teeth......I think mainly because it involves playing in the water :). When we got to the dentist, the lady talked to her about each thing she was going to do to Emma's mouth. She showed her "Mr. Thirsty", which is the tool that suctions out the saliva in your mouth :). Emma got to hold it and suction out her own mouth....and boy did she ever! When it came time to let actually clean her teeth....well Emma did not care for that very much. She kept on sticking in "Mr. Thirsty", trying to keep the cleaning tool out of her mouth! It was pretty amusing to watch! Finally her teeth were sparkling, and it was time for the fluoride treatment. She got one good swipe of it, and that was it! Emma refused to open up anymore...even for "Mr. Thirsty". Finally it was prize time! She picked 4 things out of the basket, and then told the lady that her sister needed one also. And the lady asked her if she always told her sister what she wanted. She said "Who is the boss, you or your sister?" And Emma said "Mommy is!" I was very proud to see she has actually been listening to me lately, because we have been working on who the boss in our house is........because most of the time Emma thinks she is! Anyway, the dentist came to check her teeth out and just could not get over how precious Emma was. She could not believe a 3 year old would talk so much. Emma asked the dentist all kinds of questions and chatted up a storm. The dentist sat there chatting with Emma for 5 minutes. It was very cute! Always an adventure!
