Man, poor Elle... as is she didn't already have enough going on in her mouth. She has an extender glued to the roof of her mouth to spread it out, a lip bumper on the bottom teeth AND braces!
Well, add to that her newest addition... HEAD GEAR! I'm totally serious! Her teeth are straitening out perfectly, but she has now developed an overbite which is help with headgear. When the orthodontist yesterday told me this, I had to turn around so Elle didn't see me laughing. I almost had to leave the room because I literally couldn't hold in my laughs! I know that sounds awful!
So, Elle is no longer just a metal mouth but now a metal head! POOR THING!!! Luckily things are going fast, and she wont need any of this stuff much longer. I'm thinking around April or May.
Fortunetely Elle is at the age where it's still 'cool' to have stuff like this... so she isn't bothered in the least. She wore it with pride last night, LOL!
About Me
- The cool family!
- You’ve made it to my blog! My name is Ryann, I’m 29 years old and my awesome husband is fast approaching (gulp) 37. We are the parents of two great daughters. Elle is our 8 year old and Naomi (affectionately referred to as Pinky) is our 4 year old. The fifth member of our brood is a hairy one, at just over 2 years old, Loki, the German Shepard. Loki dutifully guards our house for us while we’re away… and while we’re home. He also guards our car, our toys, our bikes; he pretty much has taken it upon himself to guard every object in the confines of our property. We love the outdoors and try to be out as much as possible. When we can’t be found outside during downtime, then it’s a safe bet we can be found at the range shooting our big scary guns. I’m pretty good, although Eric is better!
ELLE
Elle is our 8 year old. She is a bookworm and loves to play at the park. She recently got her ears pierced and discovered she likes wear my dangly earrings more than her own. She’s hard to get out of bed in the morning and is fast approaching tweenhood.
PINKY
At 4 years old, Pinky is a fireball. When she is good, she is very very good but when she is bad, she is horrid! Pinky has one passion in life and that is to have a cat! She also loves any and all coloring books and looks forward to starting kindergarten in the fall.

Oh my gosh, poor Elle. That sounds a little extreme, but I guess they know what they're doing. So you think just a couple of months? And, she thinks it's cool? That's good.
Love you! Mom
