My beautiful daughter was born! 7:01am on a gorgeous Thursday morning. Happy Birthday DD!
This picture is at 1 year old. Wasn't she adorable?!
What a difference 10 years makes. She is still my beautiful girl, but now she is blossoming into a young woman as well. I am very thankful that she still listens to what I have to say, even if she doesn't always do what I suggest. That is free will in action, I guess.
Last night we had so much fun getting ready for the first day of school. She asked me to help her pick out her outfit. She informed me that "Boys really notice you the most on the first day of school, so I want to make a good impression, otherwise they won't notice me at all the rest of the year." I almost felt like sabotaging her outfit! hee hee. Since it is going to be warm today, we agreed on jean capris and a new blue top that has sparkles on it. She is finally wearing her hear back off of her face, with a hair band. I allowed some lip gloss, that is it for make up though.
We also celebrated her birthday yesterday. She wanted to get her gifts early, so I acquiesced. She was very happy with the Webkinz that I bought, as well as the Lilkinz her brother bought. She LOVED the personalized M&Ms that we got too. And of course was very excited about the horseback riding lessons, even though they don't start until November.
We made cupcakes for her school treat, and put the personalized M&Ms on them. What a great idea it turned out to be! She felt very special. I had 1/2 of them say Happy Birthday, and the other half say DD is 10! I knew she would love them! We'll give the rest away at her birthday party.
I'm trying hard to think about my baby being in double digits now. She did tell me she will always be my baby. *sigh*

Happy Birthday, df's DD!
10 is a big one. I remember my 10th birthday. It was the first time I got to have a sleepover at my house. I was SO excited.
She's growing into a beautiful young lady. It's fun to see how she looked at 1 and see how she still has some of the same sweet features at 10. Very cute.
Happy Birthday to little bugmeat! Great idea to put the M'n M's on the cupcakes! I bet DD looked beautiful on the 1st day of school!
Cute Idea with the cupcakes...
silly people here.. we can now only bring "healthy treats" for birthdays and such, so cupcakes would be out.
Ever thought about bringing Bran muffins for your birthday? HA!!
Happy Birthday Babybugmeat!!!
How nice that you two can have such a nice time together.
What a cute little sailor outfit!
Your DD is 2x as old as mine who turned 5 this week!
What type of party is she having?
Did the boys notice her?
LOL, she informed me that if the boys had noticed her, it would go around THE ENTIRE class before anyone told her, so it could be days.
Happy birthday week to zombiebaby too!
Cupcakes AND M&Ms. You are the best mom evah!
BTW, your daughter is really starting to look like a young woman. She has beautiful poise and such adorable hair.
*giggles*
Happy Belated Birthday!
Any news yet on whether she was noticed?
It seems like ages ago that my daughters were only 10! Enjoy this last year or two of relative innocence.
Sugar and spice and everything nice, right?
