Thursday might have been her birthday, but the public was the one receiving treats from Michelle Obama. The first lady rang in her 49th birthday by debuting a new Twitter account under the handle @FLOTUS. Her former account, @MichelleObama, will now be managed by the Democratic National Committee. FLOTUS' office will share updates and photos with Michelle Obama signing off as "–mo" when a tweet comes directly from her.

The second surprise was shared through Twitter as well as the office's second tweet featured a photo of FLOTUS sporting a new hairstyle — with bangs!

"The First Lady just met with Inaugural citizen co-chair David Hall ahead of #MLKDAY of Service,” her office wrote with the photo of Obama wearing a red knitted dress and her hair in a cute bob with bangs.
