She really is beautiful! I'm jealous, I have been thinking about getting Janes done, but I have a hard time taking the plunge:) I know I'm a dork. She looks so adorable! Oh and I love all the pictures of her holding her bear and sucking her thumb. She's hard core:) Oh and it's awesome that Cole went skiing. What a champ!

Was searching for a GF's blog and came across yours. Think you were a "smart mommy" for having your dd's ears pierced as an infant when you can care for them.

Like Kristy, I was unsure too, but asked our ped for her opinion about having our dd's ears pierced. She reached in her pocket and took out a picture of her six month little girl with gold balls in each ear, saying," ...this is what I think." She encouraged me to go ahead and said it was best as an infant when mommy could care for them. She has never had a baby with a pierced ear infection, but has had quite a few older girls ages 2-5 who said they wanted it done, but failed to care for them. She gave me some " Care Tips for Newly Pierced Ears " since she had so many moms ask about having their infants and little girls ears pierced.

I know cerebrally, as mothers of girls of all ages, we know it celebrates their femaleness and femininity. After all, they are little girls, right?

If any moms would like our ped's tips, then write me an e-mail.
