I'm a Big Girl Now!

With dad's reluctance, I took Nola to the mall and... got her ears pierced! I was sweating the whole way there. Partly because I was nervous for Nola and partly because if something went wrong Jay would never forgive me. It was definitely worse for me than for her. When we got there we circled a few times and Caitlin and I were both checking the people out to make sure they were legit. I asked a million questions and made sure everything was sterile and they wore gloves. Nola was such a TROOPER. She cried when they cleaned her ears with alcohol and when they were trying to put the dots on her ears. But barely whimpered when they shot her with the guns. Go figure! She has 14 K white gold because I was afraid she might be allergic to anything else. I think it was worth it. She looks sooo cute...not that she could get any cuter! Thanks Aunt Caitlin!

Right before the big moment!
Right after...she did so well!!

"Yeah for me!"
"Ooh! I get a prize for being a big girl! Nice!"
"Can we do this again? I like getting prizes.
Hey y'all look at my new purse!"

AHH! I can't believe your ears are pierced. You're going to look so grown up when I finally get to see you again. I'm counting down the days until Florida. You better be prepared to play long and hard. We have lots of things to accomplish like blowing bubbles in the pool and building sand castles on the beach. And don't forget you have to show me all of your tricks that I haven't been able to witness in person. I love you Nola Anne!!
