If you go to account management on your XBox you can go to Upgrade account (or whatever it's called) and you will have to enter the parent account ID you used at sign up. Then you can advance yours to an adult account.

And happy birthday :P

Promoting your account is an easy process - but you do need a different credit card than used before, if any. BTW, Happy Birthday in advance.

Is the upgrade option available as soon as you turn 18?

Or do you have to wait a few days/weeks for Microsoft to realize that your now 18? :?

It should be instant (the day of), seeing is how the Windows Live ID information is taken directly. Not 100% sure, however.
