Pierced Baby Ears

-
I don't remember ever not having my ears pierced. This is my niece, and her pierced ears. Her dad jokes the belly button is next.

What a cutie pie......and she's cute too :)


I always thought it was bad for babies to have pierced ears.....I've been in the vicinity when they were having them done before.....blood curdling screams echoed through my ears.....poor baby....

although they do look darn cute!

Better to have them done young then there are never any bad memories associated with it - mine were pierced at age 9 and HELL do I remember the pain!

Funny thing... I haven't worn earrings in years.

You both look beautiful in that pic! Deer-in-headlights look for the niece and all, LOL!

WW and Techno: yeah, it's a weird thing really. I'm sure I cried. But in our family it was just tradition, since my mom is Spanish.

And thank you, I love her big eyes and cheeks. And she is the funniest baby, she's quite serious for a 6 month old. She babbles a lot and she'll furrow her brow like what's she's saying is very serious. And she hates having her picture taken, usually turns away. I bet you couldn't tell.

Oh, what a doll she is!!

I've had my ears done when I was five months old. My sister's were done at six months. If I would have had a daughter instead of a son, her ears would have been done by now. If I ever have a daughter, she will get her's done young. I love little earrings on babies. It adds to their sweet factor.
I've had people suggest me getting Chase's ears done. It's bad enough I hate getting his hair cut and stranges think he's a girl sometimes; I'm not piercing his ears! If he wants one or both when he's older, I'm fine with that. Just not now.

Ottawa Vacation

-
In Spring of 2007, I went on a solo vacation to Ottawa and Montreal, Canada. Ottawa is a beautiful and charming city, I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the area. Although Montreal is a bit more cosmopolitan and well-known, I actually preferred Ottawa. If I had to do it again, I would cut back on the days I spent in Montreal and spend more time in Ottawa.  I stayed in Byward Market , which is within walking distance to Parliament, restaurants, shopping, pubs, the National Gallery of Art, the Musuem of Civilizations , the Canadian War Museum and an all around enjoyable entertainment district. There is also a large mall in the Market area, if you are intersted in that. I stayed at the Marriott Courtyard because I had some connections for a room discount, but there is also the Byward Blue Inn B&B  nearby. I walked by the Inn and it was very nice, on a great street. If I were going back, I'd have no problem staying at this B&B.  And, the Market is ringed with delicio...

The Test of Other People's Poor Choices

-
It's a tough life lesson that when you try to be more loving, forgiving and in greater harmony with those around you, you will discover that someone you have feelings for, like and care about turns out to be a person capable of doing awful, despicable, unjust things. Your trust is betrayed. If you think you are justified responding with anger, hate, disgust, public shaming and bringing justice for their actions, well... you are. Totally justified. And people encourage you to do all of these things. But you know: this is not who you are trying to be. You could never again be a person who didn't do those things.  When someone breaks your heart and trust, don't break your own soul. They aren't worth your soul. Justice comes of its own accord, in its own time. It's not up to me anymore. When you reach for the capacity to be more loving, turns out you might have to learn that by learning to forgive in your heart (but not your actions) those whose poor choices adversel...

Roller Queen

I've loved roller skating ever since my little sister Mishka brought me roller skates from heaven when she was born. (Thanks mom and dad, you're right, I don't hate the new baby now!) I lived across from Arlington National Cemetery as a kid, and I spent hours and hours skating along all those paths. I can't walk worth beans, I sorta fall over for no reason, but on skates? I am Kira in Xanadu, even without the awesome knee high boot skates. So during the recent weekend of shenanigans, when we found out their small town had a skating rink, of course we had to try it out. It was like nothing I've experienced before. (Shocking, I know!) First of all, they give you two plastic bags to wear over your feet.  Do skating rinks in America care this much about foot hygiene? No, they don't. Here's a picture of me putting on my foot bag: The rink itself was fully lit, which discouraged any sort of skating rink romance, so disappointing!, but this I could overlook. T...
