For months now, Aubrey has wanted to get her ears pierced. So all summer she has been working towards this special day, saving up her "good behavior points" for the ultimate prize! Today was the day! We headed to the mall, and she hopped up in that chair without an ounce of hesitation. Not a single tear was shed when the earrings went through, and she immediately smiled at her accomplishment. As the evening went on, she said probably 48 times, "I can't believe I got my ears pierced!" She is definitely proud of herself. :) (And I do have to say, she looks pretty. darn. cute. to boot!)
