New Walmart=new cavities

Just a funny but not so funny update! Last week we all had our dental check ups. I warned the kids if they had any cavities no soda and no buying candy until the next check up in December. They have been buying soda and candy more than ever since the new Walmart opened. Although they completely deny it. So here's how it panned out: Timo 4 cavities, Izak 2 cavities, Emily and Taran 1 each! Bummer for them! We usually don't drink soda but for special occasions. But I think they were very surprised by the news! We are doing our best to stimulate the economy!

Oh bummer for the kids!! I bet the wal-mart is always calling for the kids to come visit. What a well thought out consequence, I'm impressed.

Cavities--no fun and expensive! Scott's always wanting to buy liters of soda at Wal-Mart (they're so cheap, Mom!) but I usually don't let him.I hope his teeth aren't permanently stained when the braces come off!

Wow....too bad for them!

I'm glad my kids are too young to ask to go there. I actually think they for get it's there sometimes. Sorry your kids don't!

Even Riley doesn't go there all that often....

OH, groan! We only had one cavity out of the 5 of them, but we still need to do some tooth pulling and spacer stuff so we still get to stimulate the economy too.
