Colby @ the dentist.
June 4th, 2011
Picture taken February 2011.
This might not seem so interesting to someone who’s not me, but this was actually Colby’s 2nd visit to the dentist. On the first visit [last August], Colby was so Not Interested in having someone touch his teeth. He sat in my lap for about 2.4 seconds before going to the other side of the room and not budging. I seriously thought I might have to start Colby’s therapy fund.
But, the dental hygienist [why don't they just call them tooth cleaners?] gave us great advice – to let Colby use a battery-powered toothbrush, so he’d get used to the vibrations. We did, and he did, and 6 months later, of course he did a super job. As if all my pep-talking beforehand was like Charlie Brown’s teacher – ‘wa-waa, wa-waa, wa wah-wah, waa.’
