Here is the story of Ella's ear piercing experience...She has asking me for days to get her ears pierced and I kept putting it off because I was not comfortable taking her the mall and having a 16 year old from Claires try and pierce her ears (NOTHING against Claires NOR 16 year olds!!!) I just wanted to find the right place. So I was getting my watch fixed at a jewelry store and noticed they did it there! So after CHuck E. CHeese and shopping we stopped to get her ears pierced. Well Ella kind of went crazy and started crying hysterically when the woman came near her...as I'm trying to calm Ella down I start to hear Sophie starting to sob....I was a little confused b/c Sophie wasn't even getting her ears pierced!!! Nevertheless she starts screaming, "I just want to go home!"...As I was comforting the girls Ella had decided that she wanted ME to do it so I had to pretend to hold the gun as the very patient woman pierced her ears....
Well fast forward 10 minutes...Ella was in love with her new earrings and even said she looked like a princess...and of course now that I exposed Sophie to such trauma I can kiss goodbye any ideas I have of getting her ears pierced! Lesson learned: Never bring a child you hope someday will get her ears pierced to watch another get them pierced!

Ha! I was laughing reading your post. One was screaming and then the other started screaming! Soo funny and "traumatic" at the same time.
Sounds like such a fun day with your girls! The ear piercing story is def one of those expect the unexpected motherhood moments:) Ella looks adorable with her ears pierced and I wouldn't be surprised if Sophie decides to get her done despite witnessing the drama!
Dear Ella, I love the new pics and the new look. You look beautiful!
On another note,I would like to discuss a nasty rumor I heard about you, your parents, and your sisters not coming out to the "Stanch" for Easter! Now as you know your Uncle Scott and Aunt Emily have been having major withdrawl from not seeing you and your family. The Easter Bunny will be so sad if you can't make it here and search for your eggs. Plus Aunt Emily was going to make taco salad, buy good wine, and have piles of olives and cheese for you and Sophie. So I hope that this is only a rumor, and that you can talk your fam into coming to the "Stanch"this weekend! WE MISS YOU ALL!
Love,
Alone in The Stanch
