So here is a before and after (now) picture. I am 7 weeks out and would LOVE to post a picture without that beautiful white bandage, but at least I got my hair done. Maybe I will get more movement when all of the swelling/packing/problems are gone but I think you can see that some improvement was made. I'm wondering about the weight change and if Dr. Byrne will want to "tweek" that a bit, but that is the least of my problems right now! Overall, I am pleased with the difference in my smile - especially in my resting mouth. Again, these aren't the best pictures, but I thought this blog was getting a bit boring with just updates all the time. Soon I will add some pictures of the girlies. We have been super busy (yesterday we had 3 basketball games and a piano recital) and this week we have a ballet recital (& dress rehearsal) and preschool graduation. The recital & graduation are both Thursday night but this year one is at 7 and the other at 8:30 so we can make both! Then we have to be at the airport at 6:00 Friday morning to get the 1st flight out to Houston for my appointment at 12. I hope I get good news!! The HHC nurses say it is closing up more & more each day and have contacted the office in Houston - I only get it packed once a day now!
7 things that make me smile:
K -
You look AMAZING! I know it's been a tough road, but now everyone can see your beautiful "outside" smile to match your beautiful "inside" smile. And you 'do looks great too! 3 little girls and no grey hair - now that's amazing!

Kay,
You look absolutely beautiful. I am amazed at all you have been through since I spoke with you at the airport on your initial trip to Boston. You should be proud of yourself, your husband, and your girls for having the faith and strength to endure all you've been through.
You must keep posting pictures so we can continue to see the progress. I hope to see you around town to see the "real deal." My love and prayers are with you and your family. Lynn Lee
