New 'bling' for Karly



What a brave girl..... While Mommy was out shopping for new earrings Karly decided she wanted new earrings too "just like Emma". It was a last minute decision (and probably easier on me because I didn't have time to think about it). She cried a little after the first one but after they have her a lollipop she was fine....then came the other ear....she was distracted looking at something and before I could get out camera it was over. She cried again for a few minutes but has enjoyed showing them off ever since.
