Nothing says clean like Dora!

Okay.....this morning I took Chloe to Chick-fil-A like I always do on Saturdays, and then we headed to Wal-Mart. I am just going to go ahead and let everyone know that I strongly dislike Wal-Mart, but it is so much easier than going to multiple stores. We had to get the important things like diet coke, diapers, diet coke, wipes, diet coke, and oh yeah......Chloe's first big girl toothbrush. We went to the toothbrush aisle expecting to find just a couple options, and this is what I saw:



I am not sure why kids need so many options when it comes to a toothbrush and toothpaste! Oh, those marketing people are so smart. They put it down low for kids to reach, and put all their favorite characters on there......they think they are geniuses! Guess what, they are not fooling me! My kid is up high in the shopping cart! Okay, maybe they did get me because I could not just pick up the cheapest toothbrush, because her eyes focused in on Dora, and Barbie! I thought that she was going to be scarred for life when I made her put back one of them. Guess which one she chose??



And what is the fascination with Dora? I think I have mentioned that I am not a huge fan. But, I have a hard time not letting Chloe have something that she loves so much, and it is just a character. I just hope she does not come home soon speaking Spanish. I would really prefer for her to learn English first.......call me crazy!
