holes in the ears


This is a big day in a girls life. I had to painfully wait until I was 16 to do this so I have sympathy for my girls when they beg me. We originally said age 8 was when we'd take the plunge, but when Abbey got it done 1 week before her 8th birthday that rule went out the door. "Mom Abbey was 7 when she got her ears pierced and now I'm 7 so I can get mine pierced!" Ok fine, you're right, they're going to be so cute lets do it for your birthday!

Here she is gearing up for the pain...



Oh that face! She realized it was hurting a little more than I had told her it would:(


She did it!! No tears just some really watery eyes and a deep breathe! Way to go Miah!!


Now if I can just help her remember to clean them 4 times a day (I'll be lucky if we get it done twice!)
