Makenna's New Look



Last night Makenna got her first birthday present from us--she got her ears pierced. I might be a bit biased, but she does look incredibly adorable with her little white gold studs. We tried to get them pierced on Thursday, but that experience was quite disasterous. Makenna was tired and was fighting off a cold, so she wasn't at her best. On top of that, the lady who helped us really didn't know what she was doing and seemed quite nervous. They tried to pierce both ears at the same time, but it didn't work. One of the ladies would be ready and the one who had no clue wouldn't be and said she couldn't get to her ear. Well, we finally gave up and I left there in a bad mood. So, we returned to Claire's last night and the assistant manager helped us. Makenna still squirmed, but she had absolutely no trouble piercing them. Justin thought I was over-reacting on Thursday when I was upset that the lady didn't know what she was doing, but after how easy it was last night and watching the lady do it, he was also convinced that the girl on Thursday really didn't know what to do. But anyways, it is all over now and Makenna has pierced ears. She hasn't bothered them once in the 24 hours since she had them and I hope that continues.
It is hard to believe that Makenna will be 1 in a week. We will be busy this week preparing for her party, but we will be sure to post some pictures.

She looks really cute. Kathy said Cooper, Luke, and I would get together soon. I will ask her if Makenna can be in the playdate too.
