Guess who got their ears pierced today?

We went to the mall today to try out some sizes before Black Friday.  I like to figure out sizes before I buy, then order online from my nice, quiet, comfy home rather than go shopping in the middle of the night.

We've been trying to convince Cara to get her ears pierced for a while now.  We've told her exactly how the process works, and that it does sting a little.  She hasn't been all that interested.  We walked by Claire's today and asked her if she wanted to get her ears pierced and she said, "No."  We said she should at least sit in the chair and look at the earring choices.  She saw Hello Kitty earrings and decided that getting her ears pierced wouldn't be a bad idea.  Sorry for the cell phone pics.  We weren't prepared for the occasion.

Here she was, ready to get her ears pierced:

Getting her ear marked for the earring.  Starting to look a little nervous.  By this time she was telling the lady, "I'm just nervous."

First ear pierced, no problem.

Then she was a little scared and didn't want the next one done.  Yikes!  We couldn't leave with just one ear pierced.  Daddy had to hold her for the next ear.

Daddy dried her tears after the next ear was done.  She turned the tears off like a switch when Daddy told her she was brave and could pick a prize. :)

Here is Miss Cara, modeling her brand new Hello Kitty earrings.

She's super excited about them now!
