Who is this metal mouth? (Click the picture to see the face.)







Yes, that's right...it's me. I now have a tin grin, tinsel teeth, train tracks... A few months ago Josh and I started talking about the braces thing. I guess I've wanted them as long as I can remember. Lately I've started feeling even more self-concious about my overbite. (I never post pictures of me from the side because of it!) We started doing some figuring. It came down to the fact that if I didn't do it now...I never would. Once we have a house and little kiddos, I would never want to spend that much money on my teeth. Josh pretty much decided one day that I was getting them. I argued because well, it's a lot of money. He said, "Love, you're getting braces." Empathize the period. So here I am...

I went this morning. It was pretty uncomfortable getting them put on but not so bad. I'm hoping that I'm not in a lot of pain tonight. Bottoms go on in a couple months. Two teeth have to be extracted in the coming month... It feels really weird right now but Josh says it's cute so that's all that matters.
