I've been brushing Caleb's teeth twice a day for awhile now, but lately he has stopped being cooperative! His cooperation ended when we switched from the fingertip toothbrush to a 'big boy' toothbrush. Right now we're working on getting him used to the idea of this new toothbrush by letting him try to do it himself. We brush his teeth before he goes down for his nap and also before bed. Part of the routine is to sing a little song while his teeth are being brushed and for him to hold onto his friend, Mr. Walrus, who also has teeth! When we are finished Caleb always gives Mr. Walrus a night night kiss. Here are a few cute pictures of Caleb brushing his teeth with Daddy last night!

Good job, Caleb! You look like you are doing a great job with your big boy toothbrush to me. Daddy Bob and I are excited that we will be seeing you soon! Love, Granny
Cute! Good job Caleb! I just wipe Lainey's teeth with a wash cloth after meals. We sing the song Jennifer taught me freshman year "Im going to brush my teeth, ch ch ch ch chch. Im going to brush them good, ch ch ch ch ch ch. . . . and it repeats! Haha!
Wow, Caleb has quite a few teeth already. We are also entering the wonderful world of 'do it myself.'
