Braces?

So I thought we had a few more years before we got into braces and such...apparently not! I took my kids to the dentist last month and he suggested I take Caden to an orthodontist to check on his top front teeth. One grew in in front of his bottom teeth and the other grew in behind his bottom teeth. They called it a cross bite. So I called Wed. to take him in for a consultation and they were able to get him in on Thursday and we were back in on Friday to get the braces on. The orthodontist said if we waited until he was older he might wear his gums down and end up needing gum surgery! So we opted not to wait...and now our little guy has braces! Crazy!! Luckily he is very excited. Alli was pretty upset he gets braces before her...but her time will come!
