The Piercing of the Ears

Lauren finally got her ears pierced! For those who have forgotten, she did get them pierced when she was 5, kept the studs in for 6 weeks, then FREAKED OUT when we tried to change her earrings after the studs were removed. We gave up after a few days of the screaming, and waited until she begged us for pierced ears again. She started the begging process about 2 months ago, but we told her if she still wanted them pierced when school got out, we'd talk about it AND she had to pay for it with her own money. We found out that Walmart does ear piercing, so Lauren had her ears pierced yesterday and got quite a bargain. It was only $10, including the 24 karat gold stud earrings and ear care solution. Lauren insisted on a "before" picture.

The Walmart employees double-teamed her. She said she didn't feel a thing.

Lauren chose the August birthstone studs, because she liked the light green stones. She is so happy with herself, and looks really cute.

Love the earrings, Aunt Christina will be happy you picked green, since that is her favorite color too.
