Ava's Blingin'

Yesterday was a big day for Ava... She got her ears pierced! I guess she got called a boy one too many times and Josh finally agreed that it would be a good idea. We met Josh at the mall on his lunch break and from the minute we got there he kept trying to back out because he was so worried about her crying. I stayed strong. She actually did really well and only cried for a minute or so after they were pierced and they haven't bothered her since. She is wearing some pretty blingin' diamond studs. I swear she looks way older now that she is wearing earrings, but she sure is cute. I love this picture collage because it totally shows the series of events. She was perfectly fine when we got there and then freaked a little when her ears were pierced and then we headed up to the food court for lunch and she was so happy again, in fact, she was drawing quite a bit of attention because she was so happy and smiley. I am having no regrets about doing this which I am pretty relieved about. Josh is feeling good about it now too even though you can tell in the pictures he wasn't too sure about the whole situation. My favorite is the center picture because Josh is giving the girl piercing Ava's ears the biggest crusty!
