We went to go see Dr. Steve last week, aka Uncle Steve. It was Ben's first successful trip to the dentist. The last time we went he was terrified and exhausted. He ended up falling asleep in the corner. But this time he was a superstar!! He took a ride in Uncle Steve's fancy chair. He tried on a cool glove, just like Uncle Steve's. He wore the super cool dude sunglasses so the light wouldn't get in his eyes! He completed the picture by wearing the giant bib. The best part was that Ben let Steve do a full exam! He even had his teeth polished and did a fluoride treatment! Ben is getting so big. It is exciting and depressing at the same time. I love watching him grow up and try new things and be brave. But it is hard to watch him leave toddler-hood behind him.
