Earrings

I have been waiting and we finally did it! We pierced Ellery's Ears! I wanted to do it right away when she was still an infant (hoping that she wouldn't be as afraid or focus on the pain as much) but Chad always said no. He always says when he sees babies with earrings it takes away from how cute they really are. Well I don't know what go into him today but he said if we wanted to do it, today was the day. So we went to Claire's and we did explain to Ellery it would hurt a little bit. Luckily they had 2 girls working so they could do both her ears at the same time. I was worried they would do one, and then not want to do the other because of it hurting. Then what do you do???

They pierced them and she went from all smiles to SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER! They looked great but she could careless. She just screamed and screamed...for about 10 minutes straight.

Now a few hours and a nap later she is happy as can be. She still cries a bit when we clean them because they are a bit sore but hopefully the more we clean them the less of a big deal it will be in her eyes.

I do have to say she looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL and I am just loving how they sparkle in her ears. My little girl is clearly growing up!
