Elijah saw us brushing our teeth one day and decided he needed to be part of the fun! I think he felt a little left out because he only has 4 teeth so far, but we figured it's good to brush even 4 teeth. So, first he started just sharing a toothbrush with mom or dad. Most people would find this disgusting, but I guess once you have a baby all those goes away!
We upgraded to his very own toothbrush, and he's pretty excited about it. Mostly he just sucks the water or toothpaste off it, but we're practicing.

Or... he spends 5 minutes examining the brush from every possible angle! Apparently, it's important to know exactly what you're dealing with while brushing. We love our little dentist!

It's true- I used to be disgusted by a lot more before Owen came along!
Ella likes chewing on the non-bristly end of the toothbrush or just waving the whole thing around at the baby-in-the-mirror.
