Things aren't all doom and gloom in the Kardashian family!

Thursday is Kendall Jenner's 16th birthday! While her distraught sister, divorcee-to-be Kim Kardashian, bailed on the rest of her promotional Australian tour, Kendall celebrated her special day in L.A. with her family -- and hoped for a car!

"Every teenager wants a car when they turn 16 because it gives them that sense of freedom," Kris Jenner told E! News recently. "Kendall has to ask to be driven everywhere and her school's kind of far away from where we live so I think it would be a good thing for Kendall to have some wheels. So it just depends. She's such a great kid."

VIDEO: Kendall says Kim pushed her into modeling

Kris, 55, told E! News that Kendall and her famous sisters are currently in the midst of planning her Sweet 16 Birthday Bash, which will air in a special on E! A source tells Us the special will include Kendall shopping for a car -- and getting a belly button ring or tattoo! "They are trying to like up Nicki Minaj or Kanye West to perform," adds a source.

But her mom clarified: "She's not a partyzilla. Her mother is though. I wanted this big party for Kendall and she was like, 'Mom, calm down.'"

Khloe Kardashian tweeted "Happy Birthday" to her kid sister Thursday morning, adding, "I love you more than you know!"

Rob Kardashan wrote that he "[couldn't] believe [his] little sis is 16," while mom Kris pleaded: "Promise me you won't grow up too fast!"

    Why does everything these people do have to be televised ? Can't you just have a simple 16th Birthday Party with family and friends, and then they are still planning it~ Her Birthday was yesterday and the party will be like a month from now !!!

    A tattoo @ 16. That's crazy & wrong. A belly ring's ok. No 16 yrd old should be getting a tattoo. As for them airing her birthday on tv. Anyway for them to make money the Kardashians will do. This is silly, crazy & wrong. They are a fame. money hungry family. Shame on them.

    We are not talking about the pricey $10 million price tag for the elaborate wedding, we are talking about its length. We hope it was fun while it lasted. http://bit.ly/tvOjhH

    it's strange that mom is the one that wants to party...not a good sign.

    if they're smart, they won't give her a car till she's older and proves responsibility. However, the Kardashians aren't known for being smart. I didn't get my 1st car till I was 19, when I was working.

    bruce jenner paging mr bruce jenner - will you grown a pair and put some breaks on your worse half - televising the insane wedding was a fiacso - now your wife announces a televised 16 party for your daughter - emphasis on your daughter - for love of god do you really want your daughters to follow in the foot steps of your stepchildren - they are a mess - your wife is not going to be happy until one of her children are dead and she can televise the funeral! HARSH YES REALISTIC YES!!!

    OOOOOOOH,,, GOODIE!!!! We get to experience yet ANOTHER "special" featuring this self-absorbed, money hungry family! I'm gonna watch me some CAKE BOSS -- not THIS drivel!!! You should see Kris Kardashian's video where she sings HORRIBLY -- "I Love My Friends." All she has ever wanted was fame and fortune and she doesn't care WHO she uses to get it.
