Since my last post, we’ve been pretty busy around here. First, I made another visit to the orthodontist and we now have a two part plan that will begin in December when I get my records done. They will do pictures, x-rays, and plaster casts of my whole mouth! I was promised  that none of this will hurt, and it will be much like a photo shoot. We’ll see about that! The tentative timeline is to have headgear at night to help my bottom jaw go back instead of continuing to grow forward in March, and MAYBE 4 braces on top by June. Momma keeps saying that I’m only seven to be having an orthodontic plan, but we both agree that if it keeps my jaw from having to be broken later in life, let’s go for it!

My friend, Ellie, and her family came to Mema’s earlier in the month to have a swim date!  It was soooo much fun to see her!  It’s too bad that we live 30 minutes apart!  There are a few pictures from our playdate that will hopefully be up soon. 

One of my most recent adventures was going with Gigi on a bus trip to Chicago to spend the day at the American Girl Store!  It was so awesome!  I told Gigi that it wasn’t how I’d imagined it, but it was cool!  Gigi got a matching pink dress for my American Girl doll and me to wear.  I got my picture taken with my doll and printed on an issue of American Girl Magazine!   Of coarse, this was AFTER my doll spent some time in the spa getting her hair done!  The biggest treat was a tea party for guests.  There were tea cakes, sandwhiches, desserts, oh my!  I also made a NBF on the trip.  We met on the bus and kept running into each other all day.  We even sat by each other at the tea!  On the way home, Gigi traded seats with her so she could sit by me!  I got so many neat things and even some stuff to put up on the shelf for my birthday.  Thank you so much, Gigi!  “This was my best day ever!”

Well, it’s definitely 4th of July time…Mom already has us dressed in red, white, and blue attire.  As soon as Daddy gets a chance, he’ll upload some pictures she took of us waving some flags and hanging in the garden.

Also, you’ll notice that I refer to Momma now as Mom.  I asked her if it was okay and she said yes, but I don’t think she really believes herself when she says, “That’s fine.”

Last, we’d like to send out some thoughts and prayers to Jen C.  Just know we’re thinking about you and your family.  If you need me to come and make some castles out of boxes with you, I’m your girl!
