Olivia's braces

My Olivia just grew up!  She has a very crowded little mouth so the orthodontist recommended that we get braces!

She is only 7 but since there was not room for her teeth to grow in, we had to get 2 teeth pulled in preparation for the braces.

This is her before her appointment.

AFTER


You can see the holes left from her teeth!


All guazed up & holding her teeth!  One in each hand.  Check out the size of those roots!


Next step, the orthodontist.


Open wide!


And done!  She is loving her braces!  In fact she wishes she had them on top too! (not to worry she will have the full set when she is older! This is just preventative work!)

Now on to the weather!


We hit the 80's last week so the kids said it was time for water fun!


A bunch of the neighborhood kids came over & we had the sprinklers on in the backyard & then they moved out to the front yard with the hose!


The weather has been going from 80's back down to 60's & back up to 80's! In fact this weekend is supposed to drop down to the 50's!!  Let's just settle & stick with the 70's!


Spring soccer has started & my cute little team has done better in their first 2 games than they did all fall season!  Woohoo!  Our first game we tied 3 to 3 & the second game 4 to 4!  And Rigby made his first goal!  It was awesome!  It is a lot more fun to coach when we actually score goals!


This was yesterday when the weather was back to warm!  Olivia & Rigby made their own pool out of the wheelbarrow!


Olivia loves to smile big now with her braces!


And my little man!

Cute!
(Phew..done! That was a long post!)

I am jealous of your warm weather!! I came 2 weeks ago and it rained the whole time, and I am coming this weekend and they say it will rain again?? It could be worse, we woke up to 8' of snow 3 days ago!
