Summer has gone by quickly and pretty much very quitely. I hate to say it but we have only had one ear infection since summer began. The ear specialist had given Jacey some meds to try to keep the fluid from building up and they seem to be working. They were not supposed to be a long term fix but we all hate the thought of putting Jacey through yet another surgery.

Jacey was very excited that she was able to get her braces on about a month ago. She has wanted them for as long as she can remember. I have to say that I am somewhat amazed at how quickly her teeth have began to straighten out. I guess I was just expecting it to be like Justin's mouth and take forever as he has been in braces for about 4 yrs now and we are just starting to see a change.

Of course Jacey's body gave us yet another surprise and the orthodontist wants us to have 4 adult teeth pulled. Jacey nor I am thrilled about this. She is going to talk with them next time she goes in and see what else they can do. She only got 3 rubber bands on her braces but stayed true to her word and got them in Massillon Tiger colors in memory of her dear friend Tyler.

A while back Phil had traded a car that the insurance company totaled for a boat. He has been taking the kids tubing a lot this summer and they really enjoy it. Seems like a silly thing to do but it brings them great joy.

It is time for Jacey to head to the clinic for her check up soon. I have not missed going there. It is nice that we don't have to go hardly at all anymore. I have been putting off calling and making the appointment because I would rather not go at all. I know it is silly  but I hate it there. I hate what they might say and I don't think that will ever change.
