Big Boy Stuff

Judah has been very excited to have "braces." It is actually called a space maintainer , but it is in the orthodontic family, so calling it "braces" works. His little mouth needs more room for his adult teeth to come in so this will open up his very narrow jaw and push his front teeth forward a bit. He was such a champ and picked out a toy when he was done. Dinner was an ordeal though. I made pizza at home and didn't consider the fact that he needed to get used to eating with the device in his mouth. The cheese was sticking and it freaked him out. He didn't eat much, but we tried. He will get used to it in a couple of days. Here it is!
