Happy Birthday Malia!

Today is Malia's birthday and she turned 12! She had a fun day... well all except for a visit to the dentist (the shots hurt....). I took her picture after the dentist because it was kind of funny that she couldn't smile... and she was a little swollen on one side:


(She asked for a hat for her birthday)

At least we went out for lunch before she had to go to the dentist (her favorite place to eat fast food is Subway... so that's where we went).

One of her friends has a birthday today as well, and she had her party after school today. She took all the friends to a beauty collage and they got awesome up-dos and nails done. Malia LOVED this! Here's some pictures of her hair:





Notice that now she can use he lips and smile! Nice! We had her favorite dinner tonight: homemade calzones and caesar salad. She just wanted ice cream tonight. We're having a birthday party for her next week (worked out better with most of her friends), so I'll make a cake for that. Malia got the Wii Fit for her birthday... and so far it's a huge hit! I think I might play around on it tomorrow... while everyone is at school, so I don't have an audience....

Tomorrow is the last day of school! I am soooooo excited (except that I'm spending more time at the dentist again... sigh... apparently it is my job to make sure that our dentist gets an awesome vacation this year....)

McKay and Anaya have been playing Star Wars a ton these days.... they play Lego Star Wars on the Wii, have Star Wars guys to play with, and have sword fights all the time (McKay says he has "the force"). This morning Anaya told me that her favorite guy is "RB2B-Do." Made me smile this morning (which was nice.... cause before that she had a huge fit because I took her shirt off the hanger and she wanted to do it... I wasn't smiling then....)

Malia wants her hair to stay all pretty through the night... so I'm going to spray til it doesn't move, put it in a hair net, and have her sleep on a silky pillow case... hopefully it stays, because I don't think I could fix it if I had to....

Happy B-day Malia! You are becoming such a gorgeous young woman. No longer can I look at you as a, or call you, a young girl. Your hair looks super cute! I am so proud of you, you are such a talented, kind, giving, intelligent young woman and I love you so very much! The Young Women's program in your ward are going to love having you! Glad to hear that your 12th B-day was mostly good, despite the whole dentist thing! Love you!
