One down, three to go




Ty got his braces off. It was no big deal to him. Just another day. He only had them for a little over a year. Notice the self portrait. I made him take the camera to the appointment. I would say this is a good scrapbook moment, but let's be honest... it's been years since I scrapped. Now I just think "is it blog worthy?" He got them off while I was doing preschool, so Jessie graciously picked him up to take him to school when he was done. (thanks) I did not see him until late afternoon, and then for only 3 seconds, before heading out to coach.

But for mom... this was a big big deal! I was more excited than him. My uncle and cousin did the work... www.arizonabraces.com Thanks (both) Dr. Petersen! It went way faster, and did not cost us nearly what I had anticipated. His teeth look great, and I think he has a cute smile. Look out girls...he's almost 14!!






And in other news, Travis must be feeling a little neglected. He had to take pictures of himself. Here's a few I found on my memory card when I went to download Ty's pictures. What a goofball! Yep, he's gonna need braces too! PS. I think he was trying to prove that he brushed his teeth...see the toothpaste?

First of all, I'm shocked he's 14! But I have to say, he is a good looking boy, very nice teeth and smile. Excellent job, drs. peterson
