Spur of the Moment

 We needed to stop at the mall on our way to Utah County this weekend, I needed something for school, and we walked by Clarie's with the Free Piercing sign.  We have talked about getting both girls ears pierced for awhile, if we were going to wait til they were 8, if we were going to have them done together and if it was just a good time.  We decided to walk in and look.  Norma found some that she wanted and said she wanted to do it.  We gave her plenty of chances to back out but she decided that today was the day.

 As soon as Norma got in the chair, Katy took off.  She was not going to go anywhere near that chair.

 I just love these next pictures.  Norma was amazing!!!  She was so calm and ready for her ears to be pierced.  We talked about how it was just going to feel like a hard pinch.
 This is after.  She only yelled Ouch once.  No tears or anything.  She yells more in the morning brushing her hair than she did getting her ears pierced.

 Hello Kitty earrings and one happy girl!
We got to see Gerald and Deborah for the weekend so that just made it even better!  We loved spending time with the family and being in town.  We always have so much to do when we come to town but seeing family is always the best part.  :0)

Thanks for the pictures along with the story. I love how she's holding the bear tight. Did they give it to her to hold? Or is it Norma's?

What a brave strong girl! I still can't get myself to do that.

What a huge milestone. Addie is dying to get her's pierced. Way to be brave Norma! You look so cute Norma!

Can't believe our little Norma Sue has pierced ears. She's growing up so fast and looks so cute.

Love the toothless grin that goes with the earrings.
