Toothpaste

Toothpaste is an issue in our house. How you ask? It's weird, I know.

One time when Micah had friends over we found him slathering it all over his body. Another time he and Aslynn had squeezed it into the sink, toilet, tub, and covered each other in the stuff. Maybe it's just the children and not the toothpaste.

I'm not talking about the children's toothpaste that tastes like bubblegum. No, this is the stuff Micah defines as 'too spicy' and screeches when we leave it in his mouth too long! He has days and weeks where he refuses to brush his teeth - of course, we force him to anyways because the dentist isn't our favorite person. Or is that the dental hygenist? Anyways, it's a fight virtually every morning. He used to eat the stuff like crazy if it was in reach. I guess Aslynn is following in his footsteps.

Aslynn walked downstairs yesterday sporting toothpaste lipstick that spiraled out from her mouth to her temples. Yeah, we were really impressed. How much is that stuff per tube?
