1st Nail Spa Visit

After Goofy's Kitchen Makayla got another really special treat for her birthday!  She's been asking to get her nails painted since Thanksgiving but I wasn't too sure how I felt about my little girl getting her nails done at such a young age.  Well Auntie Janai was there when Makayla asked and said what about for her birthday?  So that's what I decided to let her do and boy she didn't forget and was so excited that this day was finally here.  I don't get them done often but when I do she sure notices my cute nails and toes and would say for my birthday I get them done too!  So cute!  Here are some photos of her 1st experience at the Happy Nails salon.

Picking out her color.

Now she's waiting so patiently in her big spa chair to get her nails and toes done today.
She really is excited here but was being really shy.  She even picked out her own nail color and it was a really light pink and perfect for her Princess party tomorrow.  I'm glad she picked a light color.

Showing off her nails now that they're done.  I know it's too hard to see but it was a super light pink and a white flower on her thumbs.  Very pretty!
She's all done now and waiting for Auntie Janai to be done while hers are drying.  Auntie Janai always has the cutest nails and is getting her toes to match them today for her February Valentine's Day theme.  I think Makayla seeing her Aunties fun nails all the time gave her the idea of wanting to get her nails done.  I do blame it on Janai!  Bad, bad influence! j/k!
This is Michelle.  She was doing Mommy's toes and is super nice.  She gave Makayla snacks and really made her feel special in the salon and so did all the other girls too.

Here are our toesies.  Makayla even got flowers on her toes too to match her hands.  What a fun day at the nail salon.  It was rainy out but we still had our flip flops on!  Really special treat for my special girl today!   I don't know when she'll ask to get them done again but I hope it's not anytime soon and I think I can do it once a year for her on her birthday!  We'll see.
