Allyson Visits the Dentist!

Yesterday was Allyson's first visit to see our beloved dentist, Dr. Knipschild. Dr. K has been my dentist since college and we all love her dearly. This was Allyson's "Happy Visit" where she gets to play with the various equipment and ride in the chair.

At first she was nervous. So big sister sat with her.

Grumpy face!

Then she warmed up when she realized this was like a ride.

Then she decided this was fun! (Notice she no longer needs big sister.)

On to the rest of the equipment.

And here comes Dr. K! 

As if these pictures aren't enough, here's some video of Allyson's first "happy visit" to the dentist. (Hey, what else was I supposed to do?)

Today Allyson went back for her cleaning. She did great through x-rays and everything. Hailey was great with her!

A long time ago, when Nicole was getting her teeth cleaned, she told Hailey she still had "crunchies" and needed to "swish" again. Hailey said that was the perfect word and she still uses "crunchies" with all of her patients now when asking if they need another rinse. Here they are talking about it.

Nicole brought along a poetry book Dr. K gave her a while ago. The kids love it. (Dr. K is known to have gifts for the girls.)
