Doctor and Dentist - thank you Berensteins


Recently Antonio has hit the age where going to the doctor and other similar places is more challenging. However, the best remedy has been the Berestein Bears. They have a book for everything - volunteering, sharing, working hard, nightmares, and of course the dentist and the doctor.

So with a few appointments this past month we had a lot of reading to do. We went to the allergist and luckily didn't take pictures but Antonio was great and very brave. For now, we are treating his asthma and it seems to be working.

Then we found a new dentist. This is "Dr. Natalie Mansour" and yes Antonio calls her by her full name.

Just like a grown up he got his teeth cleaned first before seeing the dentist....

And then in came the dentist to count these pearly whites. Apparently the little guy is grinding a little so we are on the watch and will wait to see if outgrows it. But otherwise he is tip top!



He was so brave and did a great job! Could have been all the prep work, could have been the warm up game of Air Hockey in the waiting room!

And, best of all he got a cool toothbrush that spins!! Awesome!

Looks a bit less traumatic than haircuts. :) Kind of funny. I'd get my haircut over going to the dentist any day.

Wow! He's so brave in the videos. What a big boy. (And good job mommy & daddy with the prep work stories!)
