Color Guard & Spurs



"Ho! Ha! Guard! Turn! Perry! Dodge! Spin! Ha! Thrust!"
~ Daffy Duck as Robin Hood

Thing 1 loves the Color Guard...

Even after spending an hour in the orthodontist's chair so he could do this...

"Spurs" is what he lovingly called this torture device.

Not shown: 2 sets of "buttons" and rubber bands to correct her cross bite.

15 minutes after procedure: "Mom! I can't ssspeak!"

1 hour after procedure: "MOM! I can't eat!"

4 hours after procedure: "MO-O-O-M! IT HURTS!"

And to think she was SO looking forward to this appointment for 2 months now!

Tri-Care Dental Program Premium: $26.27

Orthodontic Procedure AFTER Tri-Care: $1,000

Quiet time in our house until Thing 1 masters the art of speech with the new contraption in her mouth: PRICELESS!
