See Anything new and shiny about Mia's smile?

We took the kids in for their long overdue check-ups at the dentist and luckily Mason had no cavities, but Mia on the other hand hand another two cavities in between her teeth. The dentist said that her mouth is so small and the teeth so close that he wasn't surprised that she had cavities. There is an orthodontist in the same office that does free consults, so we asked him when it is ideal to start braces. After he examined her mouth he confirmed what we already knew, that Mia's mouth is so small that she would need braces and if they do it now they can make her mouth bigger so they won't have to remove a bunch of permanent teeth later. So, Mia got her braces on a couple of weeks ago and she goes in for the contraption that makes her jaw bigger on Monday. She has been a rock star so far and doesn't complain and is great at taking care of them.

How can I decide???

Here is a little confession. I have owned a Nikon D-80 for over two years now.....and I have only used it a couple times. Jared bought it thinking he was going to use it and never did, and I didn't think we needed it in the first place so out of stubbornness, I kept using our 'normal' camera to prove that it was good enough. Anyway, my friends who are all very into photography convinced me that I should start using it, so now here is my problem....How do I decide which pictures to keep. I took Fall pictures of my kids and I have hundreds of them. I have narrowed it down but I still have way too many that I want to frame.....I am much too indecisive. So, here are ALL my favorites. Sorry in advance for the overload.
