Daisy was so excited when she woke up this morning because today she was going to get her braces put on and also because she smelled the banana bread that was in the oven that her daddy had baked especially for her. He knows how much she likes banana bread and wanted to make sure she had some for this special day, as well making sure she had a full tummy because we didn't know how long it was going to take and if she would even be able to eat lunch after she got her braces on, as we didn't know how sore her mouth would be. We arrived at the Orthodontist at 9:00am and they took us right back. They explained what they were going to be doing to her and that there would be NO pain, which was the important part to her. Dr. Cain says "We're the good guys", LOL! She was such a trooper, she layed in that chair for almost 3 hours and never complained. She was finally done about 11:30am and was starving and thirsty. We took her to McDonald's where she ate chicken nuggets, french fries and drank Hi-C. She only got wire on her bottom teeth. She has to go to the regular dentist to have a tooth extracted so there is room for her canine to come in, once the tooth is extracted we will take her back to have the wire put on her top braces. Hopefully the canine tooth will come out correctly, especially with a little help from Dr. Cain, otherwise she will have to go to an Oral Surgeon and we don't want to do that. She is learning what she can and can't eat and remembering to brush her teeth after every meal, which she will have to do at school as well. Here are some before, during and after pictures of Daisy. Bobby thought I was crazy taking pictures but according to Dr. Cain everyone does it. I was thinking what great scrapbook pages these will make, LOL!
