Wisdom Teeth and Big Face
We are enjoying having David and Karen with us. I don't know if David is enjoying it as much as we are. Yesterday he had his two bottom wisdom teeth removed. They were growing in completely horizontally, inside his gums, pushing the rest of his teeth to together. The dentists said that they had never seen anything quite like it. (We've always known David is a special fellow!) The surgery went very well. The doctor said that he was an excellent patient. Of course the surgery really made for some interesting facial variations
for David. He has tried to keep the swelling down with ice, but when he got up this morning ... Well, you can see for yourself! Just compare it to some of the other pictures below! Thankfully he hasn't experienced very much pain. This also gives David an excuse not to have to practice trumpet for a whole week!

Sorry, I google searched for "Alvin, chipmunk" and your site came up. Must have been a mistake!

I'm glad that you said that! I wanted to, but I was trying to be nice. He also looks like Popeye or Sir Topham Hat (a character on the children's videos). Here is a link to a picture of Hattie. http://www.tvrail.com/Pages/StandardPages/PhotoAlbum/DOWT2004/2004DOWT-09.jpg :-)
David, I must say I've never seen you like this! It does kinda remind me of a chipmunk. :)
