Annie's Growing up!

After months of asking we finally let Annie get her ears pierced! She is so proud of her new jewels and loves to show them off. She walks up to people and pulls back her hair and will just show people her ear until they notice.

It was very cute, Annie has been asking daily for a few months to get her ears pierced (she has 2 cousins and a couple of friends with pierced ears. Originally we were going to wait until she was a little older but she is so into her princess stuff and she needed something special at the moment. We had a big talk on the way to the ear piercing store. If she got one ear pierced she had to get both. She was so funny because she kept saying yes, yes. Well we got to Claire's and she picked out pretty little pink stones and then she sat in the chair to get them pierced. I was so impressed by the girl doing it, she sanitized everything SOOOOO well and was so careful about making dots in the same spot on both ears (she must have spent 15 minutes getting it right). Well in went the first earring and out flew Annie out of the chair to the door of the store. She was in tears and it took about 5 minutes for me to calm her down and to relax. Once she calmed down the other earring went right in and she didn't even cry!

We are so proud of Annie and what a big girl she has become.
