Trading BRACES!

Last month we thought Rustin was going to get his braces off on the same day Chloe got hers on but his teeth weren't quite ready. As it turns out, he got his off today on the same day OLIVIA got hers on!

Before. He's had this second phase of braces on for several years. After finally wearing his rubber bands diligently he got them off!

Up close and personal

Olivia with her nice clean teeth! She has been excited and nervous about getting braces. She had a hard time sleeping last night!

One last look

That profile's gonna change. No more overbite!

Getting to work, listening to music or a movie

All Gone!!
I went back there the first time for pictures and they had already popped them all off!

FREEDOM!!

There they are!

Here they come!

Bonding the glue with the light or something!

A SWITCHEROO!

AFTER
Looks like they've got their work cut out for them!

Still a cutie pie!

The different bags they came home with.
Cleaning stuff and wax for Liv...

Previously banned candy and snacks for Rustin!

It made it all worth it!

Oh, we're taking our first in for a consultation this summer and realize that ortho appointments are just around the corner for us ... totally dreading it! The outcome is worth it, though - Rustin looks awesome!!
