History of the J Man

I had a cleaning with the dentist scheduled for today and she suggested bringing Jonah along so he could check things out and get use to the idea of going to the dentist.  So that’s what I did.  Jonah, Kate and I hopped on the bus this morning and headed down to Dr. Scott’s office downtown.  As usual Jonah made him self at home right away.  Dr. Scott didn’t have her dog there today but Maggie (the dog) had a ball that someone had brought for her but that was too big for her to play with.  Jonah thought the ball was great. 

With the ball in his lap, Jonah followed directions really well.  He climbed up into the chair when she asked him to and she gave him a lift up and down to show him how it worked.  He opened when she asked him to and even sat while she poked at his teeth and polished them a little.  He’s not so great at spitting yet though so she didn’t do too much more than that. 

When he was done he got to choose a toothbrush then hopped out and watched me get my teeth done for a few minutes.  He and Kate didn’t stay for the whole time though.  They wanted to go check out the Bean at Millennium Park and then they made their way to the Kid’s Museum at Navy Pier. 

All-in-all he did great and it was a positive experience.  He’s even excited to brush with his new blue toothbrush tonight.
