Took this picture tonight at the pool, he was sitting at the end of my chair chatting away while eating his oreo milkshake. His last Sunday with braces. Tommy's braces come off on Thursday Wednesday. (ahem insert Mom had the wrong date on the calendar until the confirmation phone call came on Monday night, with a comment from Tommy "do not let me miss this appointment Mom"....crazy schedule we have) I am not sure who is more excited, me or Tommy. :) His teeth will be beautiful. His gums have reacted to the braces and have had issues swelling, at first I thought he wasn't brushing enough....but both the dentist AND our orthodontist said he is having a reaction to the metal. Guess it isn't terribly uncommon. So it will be nice to have his gums less swollen too for his sake.
Can't wait to see his flashing smile onThursday...Wednesday!(bonus it's one day sooner than we had thought, bummer Dad won't be in town he is in the lovely state of Arkansas speaking (Go Hogs Teresa), he will see new teeth when he gets home) We will celebrate with candy of his choice. He has missed Snickers, taffy, gummy bears, fruit snacks and tootsie rolls.
Can't wait to see his flashing smile on
