Daniel's Braces

Daniel, unlike Ammon, is just beginning his whole mouth metal experience. His mouth was so sore for a few days. It's always so sad when your babies are hungry and hurt too much to eat. The hunger eventually outweighs the pain and they find ways to eat. Daniel is adjusting. Keeping them clean is going to be the biggest challenge.

No Braces!

Ammon got his braces off last week! He is so excited. He is smiling and showing off his teeth for the first time ever. I would have posted a picture sooner, but we had to wait for the zit to go away:) Anyways, they put a permanent retainer behind the top and bottom front teeth. He wears a full mouth retainer at night.

Gingerbread Houses

As is tradition in the Browning family, we decorated gingerbread houses yesterday. I baked 6 of them the day before and had them cut out and ready to go. We (Nick, Ammon, Daniel and I) went over to Nick's brother's house and introduced some of Nick's family to our tradition. It was a big hit. My mother-in-law (Mary Ann) got in on it too. She had never made a gingerbread house before. She gave it to a good friend of hers. They had never had a gingerbread house before, so lots of happiness was going around. Daniel is giving his to his teacher. Ammon gave his to grandma. It's starting to feel like Christmas!!! Enjoy the holidays...

Snow in Austin!

Hey Family! We had quite the storm the other night with thunder and lightning and wind gust over 30mph. We woke up to find snow on the ground. I know those of you in PA aren't impressed, but we were pretty excited. The boys were scraping the snow and ice off the car. I was glad it didn't affect the roads.

We're doing gingerbread houses this weekend. I'll post pictures. Hope everyone isn't going crazy. Enjoy all the Christmas cheer!
