New Look # 2

Once more we have added to our
 mouth bling and now we have three sets of braces in this house. It doesn't seem like you can see them in their mouths very well in the pictures but Margaret is indeed sporting top and bottom sets of braces and Beatrice has them on her top teeth. Harrison actually has added to his as well and has them on the bottom row, too. I didn't think to take a picture of him for this post.

          Since Margaret got both sets on, on the same day her poor mouth hurt quite a bit more than Harrison and Beatrice's did when theirs were put on. She has recovered well and they are all eating about normal. Although every once in awhile I remember they do have braces when I suggest carrot sticks and whole apples for snacks. Those really aren't the best choices. I made apple sauce this week so they could eat more apples, easier. Having the girls with braces is helping Harrison with his tooth brushing. I think it is getting done more regularly now.

Seriously. I am not sure if i will repeat my comment but one can never be told enough how cute our children are. The dentist here won,t put braces on Autumn till all perm teeth are in. I think as well as all the others in life think it would help with over bite.

Thanks :) It depends on what needs fixed for when the orthodontists puts braces on kids.

You sure have beautiful girls. I remember the first week of having braces on. I'm afraid I was rather grumpy about the pain.
