The DNCFR was fun as always. Chillin at the rodeo
The big day Brooke finally got her spacer out. Woo Hoo! She has had it in since October when the roof of her mouth was 28 millimeters, well below average. We stretched her mouth every night with a special key for 30 days and then it has to just stay in her mouth for three months. Then we went back into the orthodontist and he measured her mouth 40.5. Just where it should be, so now it is out and the retainer will go in two weeks from now. When she first got it out she couldn't quite talk, but she has since jumped over that hurdle with leaps and bounds. Still no word on my braces though so much for 4-6 months I think I am close though but who knows. Good news we all went to the dentist on the 26th and no cavities all around, Woo Hoo! Emma Jane likes the glasses they put on you and Brooke likes being in control of the water and the vacuum.
Emma is the big "5" now with her new look (bangs) and all, we had a small party at our house after having a big one at Grandma Gine's house. She loved all of her gifts and had a great time with her cousins. I would show you the pictures but we left that camera at grandma's house.

It was good to be able to spend the time with you guys up to Pocatello. I had a lot of fun. Congrats Brooke on getting your spacer out. I bet that's nice to not have to worry about getting food stuck in it any more. Glad that you had a good birthday Emma Jane! You are getting so big! Can't wait to see you again!

Emma Jane you have got to put your dress and shoes on and have Mom take your picture so I can see you in your dress. Boy, two Birthday cakes, you are so lucky!
