My little guy is obsessed with toothbrushes and toothpaste. He loves our electric toothbrushes, so I thought it would be cute to get him one of the $5 toddler versions. BAD IDEA! If he saw the toothbrush, he would throw a fit until he got it. Then, if I tried to take it away, it was a worse meltdown. He does the same thing with toothpaste for some reason.

Luke is also obsessed with shoes and electronic gadgets. I guess he gets traits from both mommy and daddy:) I just don’t know how to deal with the meltdowns. Does anyone else out there have a toddler w/ OCD tendencies?
