Pierced Ears!

Addie has been asking to get her ears pierced for a few months now. We told her that if she still wanted them pierced on her birthday, we would do that for her birthday present this year. She still wanted them pierced despite knowing all about it and that it was going to hurt!


We took her to Claire's to get them pierced the weekend before her birthday. We went on the weekend because they had two people working and they could pierce both ears at the same time. She picked out some cute little pink crystal flowers - very "Addie". She was nervous but so excited.



Once they were done, she tried so hard to be brave but pretty quickly burst into tears. Poor thing. After a bit of crying, we showed her what they looked like and we got a smile out of her!


I'm so glad we did it when we could get both ears done at the same time because I'm not sure she would have gone through with the 2nd ear after having the 1st one done! Here is a video of it that Clay took!



She looks so cute and grown up with her ears pierced!



Happy Birthday Addie! You are such a beautiful girl and we love you.

This video was so cute. My heart was breaking when she burst into tears, but then she puts on this adorable, brave smile when she looks in the mirror. So darling! And tell Addie I definitely wasn't brave enough to get my ears pierced at her age...I think I was 10!
