Lily gets something she really wanted

Today we went to the mall down here at the beach.  Did I mention that this has been just a girls weekend?  Daddy stayed home because of prior commitments.  So I have been solo except for Kami, who has been staying with us at night because of a soccer tournament and a party at a friends down in San Diego.   She didn't have anything to do today so she came shopping with us at the mall.  This is the same mall that we frequented when we lived down here in our motor home while our house was getting remodeled.  And while those times were hard living in a motor home with two three year olds, those times now bring back fond memories.  The girls love the mall because it has a Merry-Go-Round and a Pat and Oscars.  They were excited to show the Merry-Go-Round to Lily.  After the Merry-Go-Round (I forgot my camera so Kami used her IPhone for all of the pictures) we found a deal at the Disney store and bought some summer jammies.  It is always interesting to see if they are going to pick the same or different.  Today everyone chose something different.  As we were walking we saw a baby getting her ears pierced, so we stopped to watch.  Lily has been talking about wanting to get hers done.  Emma had hers done when she was three, so Lily is always watching Emma put her earrings in and I always ask her if she wants hers done?  And she always says yes.  And then I tell her that it hurts a little does she still want it done?  And she always shakes her head yes.  So when we were there watching I asked her these same questions and she said yes so we decided that it would be a part of her birthday present.  Her birthday is June 5.

A very excited Lily!

Choosing the earrings.

Here she is getting the marks made where the earrings will be placed.

She even smiles while they are doing it.  We always have both ears done at the same time.

Checking the ears

A very happy little girl

Putting on the sticker that says she got her ears pierced.

The cheering section was excited as well.  Especially when they also got suckers.  Meilynn is not interested at all in getting her ears pierced and that is just fine with me.
