Zackery got his braces off!!!

Well, Zackery was able to get his braces off after just 14 1/2 months of wearing them!! We are proud of him because he did the things he needed to do to get them off. He wasn't supposed to chew gum, but we know he did :), but because he wasn't supposed to and he didn't as much as he normally did, we went and bought him 2 packs of gum! He is so excited. He now has a beautiful smile and contacts!! He will be 15 in August and is about 10 ft. 11 or so!! Still looks like me, so I hear, and we are very proud of him. He will be a sophomore next year...Just growing up and we don't like it, but we are so glad that we have him!!
Before!!
Handsome regardless!!
AFTER!!! YAY!!!
Isn't he just adorable???
Daddy took this one..it's while they were taking them off, which isn't painful by they way!!
