Eli gets his braces off


I wanted to get one last shot of him smiling with a braces smile, but he wasn't having any of that.


Feels like family here.  
Josiah had braces with Dr. O.
Brianna saw him for a while, too.


The assistant offered to tickle him into smiling for me, but it didn't work.  


Pop the brackets off the teeth, pop the wire out of the mouth, and, whoops!  There's a tooth on that wire.  Oh, well.  It was loose anyway.  


They're off!


And two days later, we went back to get his retainers.  Let's hope he's better about wearing them than Josiah was.

  1. so funny that his tooth came off too! We got Moriah fitted for a retainer today. Not looking forward to dealing with that.

    1. Good luck! What color(s) did she pick? Eli got a black one and a blue one.

  2. Even without the braces, you have a good-looking kid. Hope he’s responding to the process well. :D
