After a long, hard day, this was my closing conversation with Nick last night before we fell asleep:
Me: Thanks for putting Ellie to bed.
Nick: No problem. You owe me.
Me: Obviously. Because me taking care of her for the past 13 hours is way easier than you placing her in her crib. Did you read her a story?
Nick: Yes.
Me: Did you brush her teeth?
Nick: (Exasperated) Yes!
Me: Did she bite your finger through the finger brush?
Nick: Yeah, it hurt!
Me: Oh, I know it hurts - that's why I threw the finger brush away two weeks ago and bought her a Piglet toothbrush.
Nick: I meant I used the Piglet toothbrush.
Me: Why didn't you brush her teeth?
Nick: Because I didn't feel like it.
That's right Ellie - this is your shining example of a role model.

Haha! Dr. Nick. I guess he figures she's going to lose those teeth anyway and get a whole new set. So why bother? Love it Hannah! Laughed the whole time.
It's sooooo familiar.

Yes, Nick is already creating Vicki's next customer.
