Earrings

After much deliberation, a couple of episodes of chickening out and a few tears, Caroline decided to get her ears pierced.

Honestly, I was sure she'd chicken out again.

Nope. not this time. She hopped right up into that chair and didn't look back.



She picked out some pretty, purple (starter) studs, accepted a lollipop, and braced herself. Luckily Claire's is smart. When it's a younger child, they have two people doing the piercing....at the same time. Well played Claire's, well played.

She did admit to it hurting a little bit, but she did not shed a single tear.


It's hard to see the earrings in the above picture. Note her wide-eyed-I-WILL-NOT-cry expression.





She is very proud and has done such a great job cleaning them three times a day. They haven't bothered her a bit. When the six weeks is up, we'll shop for a couple new pair of cute (hypo-allergenic!) earrings for her.

My baby is growing up!!!
