We got Miss McKenna's ear pierced today. She did beautifully. I timed it during a nap, so she slept all there way there, in the waiting room, and even as I pulled her out of her car seat. Once they started touching her ears with cold alcohol swabs though...she was not a happy camper. The nurse marked her ear with a red marker, I checked to make sure they were even, and on came the pain! McK did not appreciate having her arms held down and having her nap interrupted with such a harsh activity. It was over before we knew it. I picked her up, she stopped crying, and she went back to sleep...how funny! Her ears look so pretty and dainty. She has little gold balls in, and you can still see the red marker underneath (it's not blood people). She'll keep her earrings in for 6 weeks and then we get to change them out. Having a little girl is so much fun!
These are McKenna's thoughts on the day...

I just woke up from my morning nap happy and ready to get my ears pierced!

I wonder what kind of pretty earrings I'll get?

This is the nap Mommy woke me up from :o/

Cheese...I'm EXTRA pretty now!

Do you like my new earrings?

My new earrings make me smile.

I'm such a big girl!

I'm thinking I will go with little diamond earrings next... :o)
