The little Diva & her fashion desires
My baby girl turned 9 on August 7th!! Maeli spent the day at her best friend Chloe’s house then came home and was determined she was going to have a “fashion” party.
The girls dressed up in their “best clothes” Maeli spent an hour in the bathroom curling her own hair, accessorizing & putting on make up. She did a FABULOUS job darling!
We ate pizza, opened presents & ate cake w/ice cream. At one point Maeli dumped her ice cream on her DIVA outfit & started crying. I turned on the song “It’s my party & I’ll cry if I want to” and she was smiling as soon as she saw me belt out the words “It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to” the girls began to boogie!
This girl loves new clothes! Here she is showing off her new outfit from Grandma Suzie! 
A new bathtub for her american girl doll Julie
Of course life can’t be complete if her Julie doll didn’t have a horse to ride on!
Eating Pizza & Cake! 
Maeli frosted her own cake & Savanna added the words to it. (with my help) It turned out pretty tasty. The girls love to help me cook & bake!

Happy Birthday Maeli. She looks so grown up. I love that she is ALL girl.
Your reunion looks fun. You have been staying busy this summer!

Ah… the fashion, the hair, it's quintessential Maeli! And unfortunately it was lost on my girls and their pathetic wardrobe when Maeli came rolling into town.
She does do good hair, that is for sure!

YAY Happy Birthday Maeli! Looks like everyone had fun, I don't know how you do it Avery, all the kids have birthdays so close together, it makes me tired just thinking about it. I am always in awe of you, you are a great mamma!

Love the idea of putting on "It's my Party"…how clever! Looks like a perfect party for a nine year old little girl. 🙂
