Let the pain begin...

Lucky Kimberly gets to enjoy these lovely things for the next couple of years...

The poor girl has zilcho room in her mouth for some of the permanent teeth she has coming in. We finally found an orthodontist with a plan we liked. The first guy wanted to pull 4 of her permanent teeth and put her in braces for 3 years!

No, we did not reschedule with that guy. This orthodontist had a plan for making more space for the teeth - no pullage of teeth whatsoever, and could do it in only 2 years. We were definitely on board, though our pocket book is in serious rebel mode paying for them babies.

Speaking of changes for Kimberly, she is now registered for junior high this fall. Can we say....Aaacckkk!!! I had some serious panic attacks when I realized she is that much older. She also started attending young women's. That certainly didn't help things.

So, if you see me staring off into space trying to come to grips with how fast time is flying by, you'll know why...

Oh the amount of dollars we spend to give our children that winning smile. Personally, its totally worth it when they are done. Just don't think about the money.
