Well the time has finally arrived after two long years that was only supposed to be one....I got my braces off. I am super excited to say the least. I got the braces taken off on Monday and then got my retainer on Tuesday. Just in the span of a day, my teeth shifted which make the retainers pretty tight fitting but they tell me that this will ease up as i wear the retainer more. The photo I posted was my 'after' shot taken from the orthodontist...not fabulous but you get the jist of it!!! Emily was sad because she wants her braces off as well, but it looks like we will be waiting a little bit until all of her permanent teeth come in up top and get braces on those as well...poor kid. We keep telling her to look on the bright side that she will get all this done while she is young and won't have braces when she is in high school like a lot of her friends.

That is such a fun time. It is so wonderful to feel your teeth again. They are so smooth! I remember actually being able to bite into an apple. It was so awesome.
Tell Em that I didn't get my braces on until I was a junior in High School so I had them in my Senior Pictures and when I got married. She won't have to have all those big pictures with them on.
