It has been obvious for quite a while that Matt would need a bit of orthodontic work done. Well, that time has finally arrived. A couple months ago the orthodontist put a "spreader" in the roof of his mouth which we had to crank one notch every night. This spread out his top teeth so that they would have some room to work with. About three weeks ago he was done with the cranking and the braces went on the top teeth last week:
As for Becca, her teeth have some challenges as well. She is going to do a "phase 1" and also had to have the spreader put in her mouth to create room. We have been cranking it every night for the last few weeks and Monday when she went to in for a check, the orthodontist said, "Uh, yeah, we're done." She now has a gap between her front teeth that David Letterman, Michael Strahan, and Spongebob would be proud of:

What good parents you are. I'm sure these guys love having their mugs on the WWW.
They both have great smiles that will be even better. Ty had to do the spreader thing, too. He had a nike logo on his, do they have anything on their's?
And who is Michael Strahan? (I'm really out of the loop, you know) :) Thanks for the update!
What?! Becca's too young for braces! I can't believe that! Dylan gets his on in a couple weeks too. I will have to post it. :)
