Adah has had a very fun past two days and as my sister said she is turning into such a "girly girl" and I LOVE it! Until recently I have had to physically restrain A in order to cut her nails...sometimes to the point of laying on her! I tried a month or so back to see if she would let me paint her toe nails and she wanted NO part in that! I figured she would love to have her toes painted since she always messes with and loves my toes when they are painted! I decided to take her to the store and let her help pick out a color on her own and last night after bath she let me paint her toes! She can't stop looking at them and saying "Adah pretty toes!" I think they are the cutest things in the world!
Her next big "first" if you can call it that happened this morning! I have wrestled with it for sometime now....actually her entire little life....but today we went for it...we had her EARS pierced! Before you go judging and saying that its child CRUELTY let me just explain....
Josh and I decided early on that we would not pierce her ears as an infant bc we both felt that it was a PERMANENT thing on HER body and that SHE should get to choose if she WANTED that or not! Over the past several MONTHS A has become even MORE interested in my ear rings than she has in the past. She wants to touch them all the time and tries to get me to take them off so she can have them! A few weeks ago when we were at her friend Caitlyn's house she noticed that Caitlyn and her mom had ear rings too and she REALLY started to want them. I would talk to her about them and ask her if she wanted them when she would bring them up over the past several weeks....I even pinched her ear with my nails and tried to explain to her that it was going to hurt....like getting a shot...I told her...she HATES shots and the doctor for that matter! She said she still wanted them! So this morning Josh and I decided to take her to the mall and see what would happen! We got there and let her pick out her ear rings...thank goodness they were cute!....then I went and sat in the chair and she sat in my lap...the girl got out the maker and marked her ears and A got so excited when she saw the marks on her ears in the mirror...then both ladies that work there got their "guns" and asked her if she was ready...she sat there in my lap like a big girl and let them pierce away! You have to understand that for that is HUGE for A to sit still like that and let someone touch her! She cried for less than 30 seconds right after they did it....as soon as she saw her ears with ear rings in them in the mirror she was "all better"! Now she can't stop looking at her self and her ear rings in the mirror! She is too cute!
Here are a few pictures of her ears...the best she would let me take and a picture of her pretty toes!
Of course I had to post a picture of my other little girly! She is always so happy laying in her bed watching her mobile!
