You wanna put holes where?



This weekend Taylor and BFF Mackenzie (also known as Mack, Taylor is known as Tay-Tay) decided that they would get their ears pierced. We had told her she could do it after a certain age once she was ready but that it would be totally up to her.

Saturday she made that decision....with a little encouragement from her BFF.



We arrived at Sweet and Sassy and Mack and her family were already there.

Once it came time to do the deed, Mack didnt seem as interested as she was at first. Taylor decided to go first in hopes that it would make her friend feel better.



She sat there like a trooper and never even flinched. This pic was taken just moments before the needles went in...



This one was taken right after I heard the click of the guns. Notice that there isnt much change in her expression. If you look close enough you can just see a sliver of concern, but no pain reaction or anything.



Here is the video.



After she was done Mack felt some additional pressure and got a little upset at first but nothing was gonna keep this cuty from achieving this level of ear beauty.



She got in the chair just like Taylor and with a little encouragement from Taylor as well as a hand to hold she was on her way. At least the baby looked happy about it.



Then came the love and support only a mom can give. This pic really captures a tender moment. Feel free to click on any of the images to get a better view.



Here is her video...



So with Taylors hand in one hand and moms in the other she was ready to get it over with. Mack sat there so bravely and made us oh so proud. She beamed with joy when it was over and especially once she saw the results.



Just look at the smile on that face! Again you can click the image to see a better view.



We were so proud of both of them. It seems like it was a bit of a right of passage from little girls to young ladies. Even so, these two who will remember this day forever will always be our little girls.






Love and Prayers,
