Grammy's Visit

My mom came to visit this weekend for Tessa's big dedication. It was a super-short visit, but a great one! I was so glad she got to have some time with little T. Here are some pics from the visit. There are some stunning ones of our sweet baby girl!

Little Surprise

We have a tooth!! Check this out...she got it about a week ago. I think she really wants you to see it. Look at this face she's making!!

Baby Dedication

Tessa was dedicated yesterday at our church in Brentwood, TN. It was a special day for me and Jim (and Tessa, but she won't remember!). My mom drove in from Houston and Jim's mom was there as well. Of course I wanted Tessa to be the happy baby she usually is, and being that she was having a more fussy day than normal I thought we were doomed. She was great! After the service we went home and had a yummy meal prepared by my mommy....she's an excellent cook! :) Here are some pictures from the day!

Good Eats

While on our litte vacation, Tessa tried 2 new foods. They were both a hit!

Apples...















and prunes (these look so much like chocolate puddin')

Labor Day

These pictures were taken on Labor day. What a wild bunch!!




1st Big Game

While we were in Pittsburgh, Tessa went to her 1st baseball game. Once we got to our seats, she was worn out!! She took a nap shortly after we sat down. It's crazy how she can sleep through a lot of that noise! Here she is with her daddy. Oh, by the way for all of you who are wondering, our seats were in the shade and we had sunscreen on her!

Meeting the Great-Grand Parents

Tessa experienced her 1st road trip over Labor Day. We went to visit her great grandma (GG Dobbie) and her great grandpap in Pittsburgh, PA. Added bonus...her pap pap was there, too! It was such a great weekend being with family and I loved everyone getting to meet little T. I think it's amazing that she met her great-grandparents!! How cool is that?? Everything went better than I could've imagined! Tessa did great in the car for over 10 hours each way and was excellent meeting all my crazy family members. Check out these pics...
