Taylor's First Official Dentist Appointment















Taylor had her first cleaning visit last month. She was really excited to go after she had so much fun on her emergency trip in February. Taylor knocked a tooth loose and cut her tongue in gymnastics. To my surprise she popped into the chair, opened wide, and followed all instructions like a pro! The only bummer was when the dentist told her that she had to get rid of her pacifier as soon as possible because it was putting a hole in her smile. After the appointment Taylor and I talked about what the dentist said and I suggested we give the pacifiers to babies. She was not a fan of that idea! Then I pitched the Passy Fairy and she totally bought into it! We took a family trip to Target and she picked out a princess writing set for the fairy to bring if she gave up the pacifier. Of course Brady went in and bought it while we were getting into the car. Taylor handed me her the pacifier before her nap and that was the end of the pacifier! If we'd known it would be that easy we would have done it ages ago! She was so excited to get her present from the fairy! I think I was more upset than she was... one of her last baby possessions...gone. At first it appeared she had given up the nap with the passy and then I started to think... dental work.... my sanity....hole in her smile....my sanity! Thankfully she is back to napping! Hayden has been working on a full grill and all of them are almost in! I think Brady can confirm that after she bit him today as he tried to take something out of her mouth :) I know that all of these teeth are gonna be falling out before we know it... it does go too fast!
