Her REAL birthday.

This naked, newborn picture of my
baby girl may appear a bit graphic for
some, but I love the umbilical cord,
those long, skinny legs, and her head full
of jet black hair! Flash forward 10 years...

& I bet you wouldn't believe that is the
same kid...other than the long, skinny legs!

We went to our birthday dinner go to, Javelina
Cantina. I think they need to move her up to
the grown up sombrero....she is 10 after all.

Now, if you know anything
about the way I was raised,
you will know that my dad was
adamantly opposed to ear piercing. I finally
caved at the age of 22 and got mine pierced....
the rebel that I am. My sisters, to this day,
still have untouched ears. Well, to my
dads dismay, Sydney made the leap today!

I must say, they suit her. I cannot wait to
pick out cute ones for her in 6 weeks!!!
Happy Birthday, Syd!

Happy Birthday Sydney! I bet Santa will just have to fill her stocking full of earrings this year.

That brings back such memories. My daughter was 10 when she got her ears pierced. I hope Sydney had a wonderful birthday. It sure looks like she did!

I like her earrings. Jenna got her ears pierced when she turned 8.
