Natalie's First Dentist Visit

Natalie had her first dentist visit today. Wow, was she ever excited! She has been talking about it since May! Cooper went in April, so Natalie has been patiently awaiting her first excursion to see Dr. Shadle. It was very cute to see her so excited this morning, getting dressed up in a fancy dress and sparkly shoes, letting me curl her hair and skipping out to the car.
Dr. Shadle is an awesome dentist for adults and even more so for little ones. He talks to them so patiently like he has all the time in the world. He is so wonderful! Natalie did so good, answering questions, letting him count her teeth (20!) and telling him all about how we floss every night. (Thanks for making me look good, Natalie!) I told him how she has stopped sucking her thumb and that received a big kudos for her! Overall, I could not have been more pleased with how well she did. In fact, we did a 'Build-a-Bear reward trip' and here is her new pink leopard:
