TEETH!!

Guilty as charged. I'm a bad blogger. Here's the latest...



Hannah lost her first tooth this week. She will start kindergarten this fall so it is a little early but so far all of our kids are overachievers in the tooth department. Benjamin (age 9)is getting his 12 yr. old molars and Daniel...



just got braces today. But his isn't just any old simple case of braces. He has a "very challenging Class 2" overbite. Translation: After 2 teeth yanked (ouch), lots of money (ouch again), and up to 3 yrs in braces he will have a "functional" bite.

Be glad you are taking care of Daniel's teeth now- it's way better than later when way more work needs to be done!

Braces are a pain and they are expensive, but I always say these two things when it comes to braces...Your kids are worth every penny you invest in them when it comes to a beautiful smile...and aren't we blessed to live in a time when the technology is available to fix those crooked teeth!!!!!

I hear you on the orthodontist expenses! It's great you're getting it done though. Do you think they'll pay us back later? ;-)

Hannah wow! What a cute smile you have.
Daniel be glad you live somewhere the can do ortho! Jana had hers taken off until she can be back in the states. She'll be in college when she gets them back on, so you see it could be worse.

Kailee (age 7) just lost her first tooth as well. Hannah looks so adorable with her missing tooth smile. I always wanted braces as a kid but now...ouch! They both are so beautiful and such happy little ones. Have a wonderful week! ~Mare
