Big Saturday

Yesterday was a big day for us. Tessa had her 6 month pictures and they turned out great! Jadie (the photographer) did an outstanding job as usual! Our appointment was at 10am and I was hoping T would take a nap before then...of course she didn't. The first part of the photo session didn't hold too many smiles from our little princess. She wasn't crying, but she wasn't 'showing us the gums' either. It didn't help that it was really hot and sticky outside. Jadie was patient enough to let her take a 15 minute power nap and then she was ready to go! We got some good smiles after that! Click here to see the slideshow.

Last night, Emme (Jim's mom) watched Tessa so Jim and I could go out to dinner and a movie in celebration of our 7th wedding anniversary. The big day is on Monday! We went to a yummy italian place called Mama Mia's and had an excellent dinner. We looked into amovie, but there weren't any we really wanted to see...so we went to see one anyway!! How many chances do you get to go to a movie 6 months after you have a baby?? We went to see Hancock and I thought it was pretty good. I liked that it was a different idea for a movie. We had a great evening and are so appreciative to Emme for watching T. It's so nice having family in town!

This morning Tessa slept until 8:40am!! Can you believe it? Her last feeding was around 9pm and she slept until 8:40am! Did you hear that?? Okay, I'll say it a third time! 8:40am! Wow! How nice was that?? I loved getting more sleep, even if it was for just one night.
