The title does NOT mean that I got my 3 year old daughters' ears double pierced. She had them pierced at 12 weeks and we had no problems with them at all until the first time I changed them (right after her 3rd birthday). She must have been allergic and her little lobes got really infected and when I took the earrings out to allow them to heal, the holes closed up! She has had no desire to have them done again and then out of nowhere last Monday she told me she'd like to go to Zona Rosa on Friday, get her ears pierced, and then get some strawberry ice cream with rainbow sprinkles from Cold Stone Creamery. So that's what we did! My poor baby didn't ask me once if it was going to hurt, so I never offered up that information. She skipped on in there and smiled the whole time and laughed when the lady cleaned and marked her ears. And then came the piercing...heart breaking! But all it took was one big mommy hug and then letting her pick out a couple of things from Claires (pink hair spray and flavored chapstick!). She really does like them now and I'm glad she got them done on her own will. :-)
