1 - 2 - 3... Ear We Go!

Today was a fun day... my god-daughter got her ears pierced today!  It was a lot of fun and even though she's only 8 months old she did pretty well.  Holly, Kaylin, and I started our girls day by shopping at Sears.  I bought her a pair of adorable "Ugg" boots and Holly got her some new onesies and pants (because the little stinker is growing so fast).  Then, we bravely walked into Claire's.  We watched another little girl, about 8, get her ears pierced and she was a trooper.  Not one tear or even and "Ouch!"  It was Kaylin's turn... Holly got to sick in the chair and hold Kaylin while the piercer did her thing.  Kaylin cried when the actual holes were punched, but we gave her a bottle and all was right with the world.  Within minutes she was back to her happy little self... like nothing happened.  She really is a tough cookie and now she looks like a little lady.  Isn't she the cutest thing ever!?

We tried to keep Kaylin occupied by giving her a mirror and a princess crown
