It started out with Taylor and I eating dinner at the food court. Alexa fell asleep in the stroller and I was praising the Lord above that she was passed out and will be through her pictures. Well I must have spoken a little louder than I should have because here is Alexa, MAD because I woke her up. Boy she sure has an attitude! So to let me know I pissed her off, she starts WAILING! Mind you people are all around me and I feel my cheeks growing red...LOL.
So we cruise around the mall thinking that the movement will calm her down. Wrong again. So we stop by Spencer's to buy her a paci. I didn't know they sold pacis, but apparently they do. And thank the Lord above again that these pacis are rated G. So after paying $10 for a paci (I almost fainted at the counter mind you when the girl told me the total), we headed to Penneys to get their pictures taken. This is what I get for not having a paci on hand...$10 and this...
Trying to get a perfect picture was a nightmare and afterwards, Taylor convinces me to go to Claire's to get Alexa's ears pierced. Now, I've always heard that a mother can feel a daughter's pain, but never really understood it until last night. Even though I really wanted to get Alexa's ears pierced, I was making up every excuse in the world not to because I personally couldn't handle it. I was even about to leave Claire's, but wanted to be there for my daughter if she needed me. So to sum up what happened last night at Claire's, here are a couple of pictures that will speak for themselves.
This is me biting Alexa's dress trying to calm my nerves.
This is Alexa screaming because the lady was dotting her ears. She kept on dotting the left ear crooked, so I took it upon myself to take the marker and dot it myself. I think I did a pretty good job at it too!
And finally...
So what did I learn last night? Let's recap...
1. Always have that paci even if I have to be sucking on it myself to have it on hand...
2. Note to self...spencer's sells pacis if desperate...
3. Thank the Lord above for the little things because I sure was praising him a lot last night...
4. Never assume...last night did not go as how I pictured it in my mind!
5. And lastly...never piss Alexa off!

I had such a blast last night! Why did you post the pictures about the bubba paci? You have to show that to your readers!
Awww, gosh, it makes me want to cry just looking at her!!:( I couldn't do it though, I waited till Olivia was 6 and she wanted it done on her own!! lol Then of course she still cried and then she took them out a couple months later because she didn't keep them clean and they got infected!! lol Sucks either way you do it!! I hope she got some big loven and some goodies!! lol
Awwwwww, they look sooooo cute!!! I learned in cosmetology school that is the best age to get them done.
Omigosh, I don't think I could take Gracie to go do that. That made me wanna cry too :(
But at least Spencers had some pacifiers. I didn't know they sold G-rated nooks either! Who'd a thought Spencers would be a lifesaver??
Hi! I came over from Taylor's site. Just wanted to comment that Alexa is so adorable!!
Thank goodness that Spencer's sells pacifiers. I will keep a mental note of that in case I ever need it too. I would have never thought to look there!
