What's that on Maggie's ear?

Notice anything different about Maggie? How 'bout the bling on her ear? That's right, Maggie got her ears pierced this morning! I've always wanted to have my baby girl's ears pierced, so I finally did it. Tyler gave the "ok" but didn't want to be there when it got done. And of course since it made her cry I feel horribly guilty, but I'm not taking them out.

How it went down: Off we went this morning right when the mall opened so if Maggie went nuts there wouldn't be too many witnesses. Now, with shots Maggie cries but it dies down quickly, which I was discussing by the lady that worked there (I'm pretty sure if it had been a teenager working there I wouldn't have gone through with it). So, the lady marked the spots, I concurred, she swabbed those precious lobes and pierced away. Well! Let me tell you Maggie just started wailing! Oh, I felt so bad - but she couldn't just have a single ear pierced, so I braced myself and had her go ahead with the second ear. It didn't get better - Maggie just wailed and sobbed and shrieked. But wouldn't you know it I just held her and within 2 minutes the sobbing stopped and she calmed down. I credit the baby Tylenol I gave her about 20 mintues before we went in for that!

This picture was taken after we got home and she had lunch, about 2 hours after the ordeal, and she seems to be her normal self. So that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. Maggie's now got pierced ears.
