Magic in a Tube

This little tube of Toy Story toothpaste...

... is magic in a bottle.

If you've been reading our blog for a while now, you
know our little Noah hates getting his teeth brushed.

But one thing Noah loves is Toy Story.

While Noah was at Mother's Day Out on Wednesday, Josh and I ran
to Walmart {is that considered a date?} to get a few things.

Anyway, one thing on my list to get was toothpaste.
As we were walking down the aisle, we spotted
Noah's beloved Toy Story characters: Woody and Buzz.

Josh and I just looked at each other and smiled.

Maybe, just maybe, Woody and Buzz would do the trick.

And, well, as you can see:

Woody and Buzz were a success!!

Noah hasn't cried once since we started using
Toy Story toothpaste. And now, he even opens his
mouth for me and makes the cutest little noises
{oooh and ahhh} while I'm brushing his teeth.

And speaking of Toy Story, look what we found
while we were out shopping tonight?

A toy story lunch box for Mother's Day Out!

Of course, Noah loved it and wanted to hold it
in his lap while we walked through the mall.
{Did you see that big 'ol sucker in his mouth?
That's why it was so important we figure
out a way to brush those teeth!}

Oh Toy Story, you're a lifesaver.

Yay for toothbrushing success! I love Toy Story as well! Maybe if I put Toy Story stickers all over my washer, then I will keep up with laundry better? Well, it's worth a try!

Toy Story 3 had me boo hoo-ing when I saw it this summer. It was sooooo good and so moving.

LOVE IT!! It's always a battle brushing teeth but we play mommy dentist and that seems to work!

:) How cute! We use the same toothpaste which helps Barrett "want" to brush his teeth too. Barrett is the one we have to force to brush, and Abram cries if you take his toothbrush away! He LOVES to have his teeth brushed. We are watching Toy Story right now.

Glad you found something that makes brushing easier. Glad also to see I'm not the only mother of a 2 year old that does the huge sucker thing :) they are quite handy in a pinch. Noah is so precious. Miss ya'll!

Cute! Walker used to scream when I put Neosporin on his ouchies. One day I was desperate for him to be still, so I called it magic Harry Potter Medicine that is magical and makes everything better. He never cried anymore after that. He still calls it Harry Potter medicine. So funny!
