I had mine done for my birthday when I turned 6 and thought I was the coolest thing since sliced bread. :) Jess is of the same mindset as your parents so we're still working on wearing him down. :)Candicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10192419124018231879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049490935206310429.post-10620865891597101072009-09-21T00:57:16.243-04:002009-09-21T00:57:16.243-04:00This had me laughing so hard.

I grabbed a pair of rolled-up socks to bite when the gun went to my ear (so I wouldn't scream).<br /><br />What a great (drama-filled) story to remember with Snapper years from now. =)Smarshiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662469779133909245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049490935206310429.post-9001745573905324472009-09-17T13:46:08.362-04:002009-09-17T13:46:08.362-04:00Getting my ears pierced scared me too!

Got them done a second time.<br /><br />Good for Snapper...facing her fear although it took some time and drama. Next time, maybe she'll remember how you were right:-) LOVE the scrapbook page. I feel like I was right there with y'all!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16983979877729749042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049490935206310429.post-60089198386739091942009-09-17T11:48:18.171-04:002009-09-17T11:48:18.171-04:00looks great, Em!

Jason's sister had to wait until she was 16 and it became such a major issue it was awful. Then, when she got them, they were always huge and obnoxious looking. It was like they turned a simple thing, into a bad thing. <br />Then we knew a lot of kids between the ages of 1 year and 10 years who would get them pierced, then touch them or take them out and get infections, etc... <br />so when our girls were both 6 months, they got them pierced. <br />If they don't like it when they're older, the hole's close up nicely. :)Stefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314577454372964927noreply@blogger.com
