Visit to the Dentist

Kate had her first visit to the dentist yesterday. She did great she was the perfect little patient. She did a great job opening her mouth to get her teeth clean. They made it such a fun experience for her she asked to go back. She checked out with a clean bill of health. It was such a neat place that I'm thinking of asking if they will take care of my teeth! (And I was the crazy mom taking pictures of her kid at the dentist so I could blog about it)

Hangin in the waiting room, we named all the fish in this fish tank, it looks like a picture but it really is a fish tank

Kate picked out a Diego toothbrush (over a princess toothbrush?) and bubblegum toothtaste (yes that is what Kate calls it)

Kate got to pick out the flavor of toothtaste to have her teeth cleaned, she changed her mind a hundred times so I'm not sure what she ended up with

Here she is showing her what Mr. Tickles feels like on her finger, Mr. Tickles polished her teeth

She did such a great job opening her mouth and letting them do their thing, I was really proud of her, although we've been practicing at home with me being the dentist

This is Dr. Val, she is examining Kate's teeth

Kate got a token for being a great patient and she got to go to the Treasure Tower and pick out a toy, it was really hard to pick just one but she settled on a bouncy ball

Here she is with her teeth all clean, she got a balloon, bouncy ball and goody bag (Kate calls groceries) all for going to the dentist, things are SO different then when I was a kid

Chub in A Tub

Chub in a Tub, Tub of Love, Chubby Tubby, Love in a Tub, these are just some of Liddy's nicknames since our Tummy Tub arrived. I have to thank my sister, Emily for it, she got it from a friend of hers in the Netherlands. It's looks like a bucket or flower pot your baby sits in and is submersed with water. It's suppose to recreate the womb effect. It retails for $50 in US, expensive for a womb recreation! But Emily's friend got it for $16 in Europe where they are very popular.

It really is like a flower pot

Lydia loves it, I love that she doesn't get cold like in other baths, it's hard to tell but there is a lot of room in there, you can even fit another baby in there. She will actually fit it better when she is a little older, right now I have to hang on to her.

The girls can still take baths together since it doesn't take up a lot of space in the bath tub.
