This and that late March

Kieran had his three-year doctor visit this month as well as his first trip to the dentist. He was in tip-top shape according to the dr. except for a worrisome dark spot on a upper molar... so off to the dentist it was ;) Our first dentist trip was a success- thank goodness! We took Kieran to Magical Smiles in Jeff City. I told him that as long as he cooperated and opened his mouth big he would get a prize at the end. As soon as we walked in he opened his mouth! It was too cute ;) The waiting room was a big success- a seating area like a school bus, toys and Finding Nemo on the flat-screen... what kid could ask for more?! He was a good boy for hygienist and sat through an entire cleaning, brushing and flossing- good boy! The dentist said all looked good but agreed with the Dr.- there was definitely the beginnings of a cavity so we have scheduled an appointment to have sealant applied  to the molar to hopefully prevent a cavity in the future. Kieran got a lizard toy for his prize and stayed another half hour just to play with all the fun toys before I could get him out the door- good grief!
Three year well-child exam with Dr. Herrbold...

Kieran being a walrus monster!

First trip to the dentist... he loved the chair that went, "up, up, up!"

He was such a good boy- he sat still or an entire cleaning :)

Today, NeNe Orange visited Kieran at KIM School and got to see him in action- of course she was very impressed with the facilities, staff and setting and Kieran was thrilled to have such an important visitor ;) After we came to pick him up we all went to El Jimador for dinner and then to the fish store for our usual Friday night. Now NeNe is giving Kieran his bath- Rick and I have been banned from the bathroom ;)
