And the braces are off!!

Today was a monumental day as it was the day that Zander's braces were removed.  14 months ago, he very excitedly had the braces put on his teeth.

That excitement only lasted for a few hours until he was ready to eat his first meal and realized how much pain he was in or when he had to personally read a a poem in front of his English class and me the next day.  Either way, over the last 14 months he was diligent about staying away from the list of "no no" foods (except for corn chips), he did a pretty good job with keeping his teeth clean, and was patient. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And today, my handsome son stands before me with straight, beautiful teeth.  So worth it!
