The next day we took Mckinley to participate in some torture. We got her ears pierced. I know, I know, how could we?! I feel bad enough that I had someone put holes in her body for the sole purpose of beauty, but we did and it looks really cute! I still feel guilty though. I had been thinking about doing this for a while and thought that we would do it for her first birthday. That day came and went though and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. On Sunday though I woke up and said "let's go do it". We went, we pierced, we cried, we comforted, and we were all better! I tried to be prepared by purchasing both a ring pop and her own Jamba Juice--she wanted nothing to do with the really strange ring pop thing, but she does know what Jamba is and was more than ok to suck that down! :) It was as bad as I thought it was going to be, but she also recouped just like I thought she would. Within minutes of it being done she was doing pretty good. Not sure if I would do it again--probably would because it is SO cute! Horrible mom I know.
PS...for any of those readers out there who speak with my mom, do not say anything to her yet. We are just going to let her see for herself in person and since she is on vacay right now she won't be reading the blog.

Never any glory for the man behind the camera. Besides that thanks for the pics.
Funny, because I was going to mention that daddy was taking the pictures but somehow that got left out. Sorry babe--good job! Love you! :)
Super cute boots! Super cute pumpkin pictures. Super cute Kinley with pretty ears! Oh, and super cute outfit... wonder what amazing Auntie got her that! :)
Also, Your not a bad Mom for piercing her ears, so don't feel guilty! She won't even remember, and it will probably have been much less traumatic than if you would have waited until she was older and really knew what was going on!
P.S. Just wanted to add a special thanks to the incredible photo capturing daddy! Glory be to that guy! :)
I can't believe that is your first trip to the pumpkin patch! Glad you started the tradition with McKinley I have so many great memories of the pumpkin patch as a child. Next year we'll hope for sun or at least a little less rain! :)
Melissa! Pierced baby ears! How could you! Just joking- they're way cute. I need to get the courage up to do the same thing :) Love the Pumpkin pics. Kevin- I was actually gonna say that some of them look professional! Nice job dad :)
Thanks Erin--it was really tough to do, but I just did it. Also, don't give Kevin all the credit I took a lot of those pictures! :) He is just being a baby and wanting some attention on the blog! :)
