This is what E's been wanting for her birthday. She absolutely LOVES her new sparkly earrings and will tell anyone she runs into, stranger or friend, that she just got her ears pierced. It really is adorable. She is also VERY serious about cleaning them three times a day. :) It's amazing how fast my sweet baby is growing up. She'll be six tomorrow. Six. I have mixed feelings about that. I'm thrilled my baby girl is growing into such a sweet, smart, wonderful big girl, but I just want it all to slow down. In honor of my baby, here are some pictures of her getting her ears pierced.
E knew she wanted "sparkly diamonds", so we settled for fakes ones for her April birth month.

Marker dots on her ears! They let her hold a bear to make her feel brave. :)

The actual moment of piercing. :( I think it really surprised her how much it hurt. Poor thing. :(

My sweet baby

Resting and feeling pretty "big kid-ish" with her new earrings and blue lollipop...
