9 Years Old!!

I watched my little girl fall asleep last night as an 8 year old and this morning I watched her wake up as a 9 year old! I can't believe it was NINE years ago when I first saw her beautiful face! I've enjoyed every minute of being her mommy!

Last night I made cupcakes for her to take in to her class today so they could all celebrate with her. Today I got off of work at noon and picked Libby up from school (and she told me that one of the boys in her class said to tell me that my cupcakes are epic) :-) and Libby and I quickly headed to the movies. She has been wanting to see Tangled for a few weeks so we finally made it there today to see it. She enjoyed the movie and once we were out of the movie we headed to Build-A-Bear for Libby to make a new friend. After she made her new bear we headed home to hang out for a while waiting for Ryan to get home.

After Ryan got home we had dinner - which the menu was Libby's choice so we had a gourmet dinner of chicken nuggets, mac & cheese, and mashed potatoes. :-) Once we were finished with dinner Libby opened up her presents and then we had cake and ice cream. We had a mini cake tonight for her birthday and her big cake will be at her party next weekend.
She finished off the night playing Mariokart Wii with Ryan in between getting several phone calls and reading all of the birthday texts and emails that came in today for her. She really enjoyed her special day and now she can't wait for her kitty cat party next Saturday!
Please excuse my pj's...I wasn't planning on being IN the pictures! :-)
I think from the size of her smile that this was her favorite present of the night!
