New Hairstyles and Pierced Ears

With the slow growth of Macie's hair, has come some experimental hairstyles.  it's fun to see how far I can stretch it, but with nearly every do, I conclude that her hair is still not quite ready for that particular style.  So, I have fun trying, and just try to wait patiently for the day when her hair is long enough.

 Her first ponytail.  It stayed like this for about two minutes!

 Full Pigtails.  Also didn't last but a few minutes!

 More pigtails.

 Posing for the camera.

Then a couple weeks ago, we decided to do the unthinkable and take her to get her ears pierced!  I felt like a pretty horrible mother for a few minutes.  She screamed pretty hard, but only for a few minutes.  She looks adorable as can be and has done really well at leaving them alone.  The first night, every time she touched them, it hurt, so she quickly learned to leave them alone. It was sad to see her in pain, but I'm glad we did it while she's too young to know what was going on!

 no idea what's coming to her!

Lance didn't get very good after pictures because she was so upset, and they made him stand by with cotton balls of cleaner to help with the pain.  this last picture is her in the car on the way home.  She touched her ears, and was not impressed!
