January and the "appliance"












January has been cold and snowy so far. It is depressing sometimes. I have been trying to catch up after Christmas still. The biggest development so far this month has been Riley getting his "appliance" put in his mouth today. I think he is going to starve. He seemed fine after they put it in but then when I arrived at his class today to volunteer, his teacher told me he was starving to death because he couldn't eat with the appliance in. I hope he adjusts in the next few days. The problem is that food gets stuck in the appliance and it drives him crazy! He wants me to clean it out with the various brushes and gadgets that they gave me today. I got him to eat two shakes today and some chicken noodle soup. He is also making a loud slurping sound almost every minute. The orthodontist said that this would take about a month to go away!

I added a few pics from our day at California adventure!
