Shayla is 8!!! Growing up so fast...she is already asking me if she can borrow my clothes.The other day she said she LOVED my shirt, "Can I have it after you die?"
Still laughing about that one :)
The chocolate-chocolate cake
Birthday party with 15 girls!!! I went a little crazy when Shayla made her list of who she wanted to invite. Had a moment of temporary insanity and just sent invitations to them all. And just about everyone came. Lots of giggling, high-pitched laughing and talking and fun. Glad we only do friend birthday parties every other year, though :)
My camera is on the fritz--the flash only works part of the time, so this one is blurry.Notice the straight hair. Shayla has wanted straight hair forever so I had promised her years ago that I would straighten it for her on her 8th birthday. She didn't forget so we did it and she looked really cute. I especially loved how she would toss her head around and make sure part of her hair was over her shoulder so we could all see the beautiful straightness.
Making a wish
Shayla will be getting baptized on February 12th. She is very excited and had her baptismal interview today with her Dad. That was a special experience for both of them. She is growing up and has such a kind heart and is always quick to help her brothers and sister AND keep them in line. They love that :)

Happy Birthday Shayla!
She is beautiful! What a wonderful time. Kaylin turns 8 in just a couple of weeks!
So great to be eight!
Happy Birthday Shayla! Loved all the pics, Lani! Thanks for posting. It makes me so happy to see all your wonderful kids. They are so great! And thanks for the Steak'n'Shake coupon. We are excited to go there. Seth is already planning his meal. Glad you guys aren't sick anymore. I am loving my new job. It has been very crazy at the beginning, with students moving all around to different levels for the first 2 weeks. But I think it is now under control. I am so grateful to have a job I enjoy, and that I am relatively good at.
Happy Belated Birthday Shayla! We are so excited about your baptism too!
