Lexi has wanted her ears pierced for a while now but has been too scared. She decided today that she wanted to get them done but wanted to see the store first. Of course she needed Emma there for support since she already had hers done years ago. Emma was such a great helper and kept telling Lexi it didn't hurt, which was cute because Emma got hers done at 6 months old. LOL. We got there and I told her it was up to her that she didn't have to if she didn't want to. She wanted to look at the earrings you got to pick from first and once she saw you could get Hello Kitty she was sold. She showed no fear and hopped right up onto the chair. I did ask if she wanted to hold her baby (which I brought in my purse just in case she wanted it) and she did. She was so brave the whole time. The girl said she was going to do them fast and she did a great job! Once the first one was done Lexi teared up and said it stung and by the time she was done saying it the second ear was done. To help with her ears the girl and Tina at the same time put the ear solution on her ears and it cooled them right off. After that she jumped right down smiled for a picture and said "come on Emma lets go shop now". She can't wait for pretty earrings at Aunt Erin's wedding because she saw so many to choose from! On the way home we asked her if it hurt and she said "no" it just scared her for a minute more than it hurting. Such a big girl now!
just picke out her earrings and ready to go
me and my peanut
Emma there for support
first one done and still smiling
this is where she said it stung and was tearing up, you start to see the worried look on her face
a second later she had shed a few tears and now she is done and no tears!
A few seconds after that and she is down smiling and ready to go shop! She was such a brave girl today. She keeps looking at herself in the mirror to check out her new earrings.
