"The Best Week of My Life!"

A direct quote from Natalie. "I can't believe it. This week I lost a tooth, had my nails painted and got my ears pierced! I can't believe I have earrings in my very own personal ears! This is the best week of my life!" It has been quite a week for Natalie. Tuesday night (when I was at work of course) Natalie lost her first tooth. I was sad I missed out on the big event, but luckily the tooth fairy still went off without a hitch. Eric said at first she was crying and then the cries turned into squeals of delight. Natalie is the LAST one (or so she says) or everyone in first grade to lose a tooth and has been anxiously awaiting this big milestone. She dose look pretty cute with that little hole in her mouth. Then Ella found the nail polish Friday as I was leaving for work and asked if I would paint her toes. So I did a quick coat on twenty little toes and headed out the door. Not quite the spa experience Natalie seems to think she had. Today we went shopping and as we passed Claire's I asked Natalie if she wanted her ears pierced. I didn't think she would say yes because I have asked her before but the fear of pain has always kept her from getting it done. However, today she said yes. Well it is a good thing that they have "FREE" ear piercing. You just pay $25 for the tiniest earrings ever. Seriously people who are you kidding when the rest of the earrings in the store are like $3 each. She said is hurt a little bit but she did great. She also picked out a few pairs but she won't be switching for the next 6 weeks. I think I should have held off on the extra pairs because I have already been asked maybe a million times when she can put the other ones in. It is going to be a LONG 6 weeks. And so concludes the best week of Natalie's life. Much cheaper and easier than Disneyland was.
