Dun dun dunnnn!


The letter I'm handing into my work peeps. I guess it's official. Cue panic now. =\

Baby girl decided she hates bottles all of a sudden. Also just not a fan of milk (even nursing) in general. Panicking more than necessary now but she needs to eat!!! We're starting to feed her large amounts of solids, haha. She's my world.

Appointment schedule craziness:

February 20th- Regular cleaning (with my regs dentist)
March 4th- Regular ortho appt (might have to add an extra bracket, change wires)
March 11th- Pre-Op appt with surgeon
March 18th- Ortho to get surgical hooks attached
March 21st- Call hospital to get exact surgery time
March 24th- JAW SURGERY

Epic. After all that- I doubt I'll even have any comped time to use during my leave!!!  I really never thought this day would come. =\ I'm glad I carefully planned my regular dentist appointment, haha. Just kidding. That just happened by chance! I'm so glad though.

Along with all those appointments I have a friend's surprise birthday party, two open houses for work that I will have to attend during evening hours, one of our bigger work fundraisers, plus daily life/sleep habits of a 7 month old! Fun. Times.

Wouldn't change anything for a second!!!


Brace face selfie! Trying to take as many photos as possible now! haha

I'm yellin' timber...

Honestly... every time I CROSS-OFF an appointment. I add another one. This is getting a little out of control. I thought everything went pretty well on Thursday, but then the resident called me on Friday night to say that we need to RE-DO my upper molds. Sigh. He said that he has NEVER had this happen before and no one really knows what happened? Whatevs. He was SUPER apologetic and says it'll only take a few min. I talked to him last night and he gave me his personal cellphone number and is having me call him when I get there so he can do it right away. He's really a nice guy. I can't be too mad because he's being super nice about it. Even saying I can park in the free lot since it's $5 usually to park in Oakland. Woot. I'm just thankful I can just pop over after work. I know some people travel super far for jaw surgery. Anyway here's my (hopefully final) updated appt schedule. February 20th- Regular cleaning (with my regs dentist) March 4th- Regul

De-braced!

As of Tuesday- my braces are officially off! :) And let me tell you... I can't stop taking selfies!!! Just minutes after getting out of the orthodontist's office.  Everyone was so excited for me! It took approximately one minute to get them off. That's so crazy! Hurt a little bit, but not much and was sooo quick. Bye bye braces AND arch wire! YUP. You read that right! I don't need an arch wire on the roof of my mouth anymore! He said I should be fine without it!!! So right now I have NO metal in my mouth! *hallelujiah* I have my upper (plastic) retainer. It's amazing and beautiful. Can hardly tell I'm wearing it! I will have to wear both my retainers 24/7 (except for eating and brushing) for 4 months. That's like nothing, haha. I don't have my bottom retainer yet. He asked me if I'm okay with a regular (metal) one for the bottom. I don't even care, haha. So I will be getting that one next week. They said it might be hard to talk wit

Mardi Gras fun?

There's just not enough hours in the day anymore... Thankfully, our little one has been mostly sleeping through the night so I can go to bed at a normal hour... like 10 rather than 8:30... to get my precious sleep in. It's only March 4th and I have YET AGAIN added ANOTHER dental appointment. And an eye doctor appointment for kicks... Here's ANOTHER updated appt. schedule. Kill me now. February 20th- Regular cleaning (with my regs dentist) March 4th- Regular ortho appt March 11th 6th- Pre-Op appt with surgeon (Moved up for some reason related to the dental school where my surgeon is the Dean). March 17th AM- Ortho is going to remove my wire for my dentist (at a different office, ugh.) March 17th PM- Cavity filling March 18th- Ortho to get wire back on and surgical hooks attached March 21st- Call hospital to get exact surgery time March 22nd- Eye doctor's appointment (yes- it was necessary) March 24th- JAW SURGERY Shut the front door. Too much to handle. A
