New Bling

Well, as Matt put it, Emily officially became a little girl yesterday. She got her ears pierced. She has been asking to get them pierced, just out of the blue, for the past few days. Matt and Emily have been cooped up in the house for the past three days, while I've been at work, since we've had the big snow and ice storm come through. So, we decided to go to the mall last night to get out of the house. I asked Emily if she wanted to get her ears pierced and she said yep and was all excited. She was even climbing up in the chair before one of the girls came over to see if she could help us.

I picked out Emily's earrings while she picked out her sucker. LOL! She sat in Matt's lap while the lady was getting everything ready. Before the lady put the gun up to Emily's ear he was saying "It's okay, it's okay." I was laughing and told him that she hadn't even done it yet. When the lady did the first ear I was afraid that Emily would cry or not want to have the other ear done. But, no. She didn't flinch or cry or make a noise. The lady did the other one and Emily said "Where's my sucker?" What a little stinker.

She really surprised us on that one and was so proud of her new earrings. She was showing them off by tossing her hair on each side. They look so cute and every time I look at her it's weird to see diamond earrings in her ears. I'm just not used to it. I really wanted to have them done when she was a baby, but just didn't have the guts to do it. I don't know why. It's not like I was having them done. Anyways, I was really impressed with how she acted and the lady couldn't believe how good she was through it too. Here are some pictures of her and her new bling.
She was being quite silly too and wouldn't take a serious picture.
