Andrew has actually been talking about his teeth not being like a pirates ever since. Last night during his prayers he was thankful for family, St. George, and that his teeth didn't look like pirate teeth. I think we got our point across...Monday, March 2, 2009
Pirate Teeth
While we were in St. George the kids did NOT want to brush their teeth. They didn't like the "spicy" toothpaste we had.I tried explaining the issue with plaque and how it eats your teeth. I could tell Andrew wasn't quite grasping what I was telling him. Finally, I told Andrew his teeth were going to turn black and fall off and he would have teeth like a pirate. Brooke had the great idea of showing him a picture. This is the one we found. Pretty gross if you ask me. After we looked at a few more pictures Andrew went straight downstairs and brushed his teeth. He didn't want to end up looking like this guy.

Oh the things we do to get our kids to do stuff! I got an e-mail once on someone who got worms in their brain from not washing their hands and showed it to Ben and he washes them every time!
So thats where you were on Sunday! I missed ya! It just wasn't the same!
hahaha. That's fantastic! Avie hates the "spicy" toothpaste too and had a breakdown about it the last time we were on vacation and forgot her "special" toothpaste. Guess we'll be busting out the pirate picture next time too!
eeeeewwwww...and I even worked as an assistant and loved it. but never saw anything that gross!
so, when I pulled this up I was in the middle of eating...SO GROSS!
Side note- I saw the pics Karina took of your kids today and they look amazing!
Good to know that scare tactics work so well. Maybe I'll have to use some on Mike next time I want something out of him...
That is disgusting!
