Kaytlynn Finally Got Ears

Hanging out by the fountains after Kaytlynn getting her ears pierced.
She asked us to take about a million pics of her new "ears".

Right after the job was done...not a tear in her eye! I didn't plan it...but I don't think I could have picked a better outfit to have her wear in the store!
The 2 ladies that did the piercing.



Daddy wanted to take a before shot.

The Northrup family at Annie. That is our neighbor Orphan Peyton right in the middle.


Our girls with Miss Hannigan.


We went to see our neighbor, Peyton Crenshaw, in the Christian Youth Theatre production of Annie Jr. It was terrific. Peyton was one of Ms. Hannigan's orphans. The music, dancing and acting was all terrific!

Afterwards, we went to Market Street and took Kaytlynn to Sweet and Sassy to get her ears pierced. She has been "sort of" wanting to do this since last year. She would end up changing her mind after we would explain that it would be like a super quick pinch and then it would be over.

About 3 weeks ago, the family went to Sam Moon for hair bows. While there, Kaytlynn admired every pair of earrings she saw. She said right then and there that she wanted her ears pierced and this past weekend was our first opportunity to do it.

She chose her earrings. They are small amethyst flower petals with the center being a white cubic zirconia. She got right in the chair, the 2 ladies talked her through what they were going to do, and as soon as they pierced her ears, instead of any tears, there was a HUGE smile on her face. She was so excited! We paid for it, and as we were leaving the store she exclaimed, "I am so glad that I finally got ears!"

She has spent every moment possible admiring herself and her earrings in the mirror. Every once in a while, she will even say that she wants us to take another picture of her ears!!! She is such a little cutie!

As a side note, Delaney did NOT want her ears done. She told me she would get it done when she was maybe 30. She finally decided that she would do it when she was 8!
