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...

First Word

Here is video from Tessa's first word...da da da da da... Last Thursday I picked her up from daycare and heard her saying this. Although she doesn't know what she's saying, Jim likes to think she does. :) It's so crazy how these little things are so exciting!!! Enjoy the video and ignore my annoying voice (I sound so weird on video)!!

Big Day!

Tessa is 7 months old today!!!

Gone But Not Forgotten

A couple weeks ago Tessa switched day cares. It was a tough decision because we were very pleased with the care she received. Seeing these ladies everyday for 3 months (I went at lunch), we developed a sweet friendship. We had such a great time talking and laughing about stuff. It was so tough leaving and I will miss seeing them. So will Tessa!

Here are some pictures from her last day with some of her new friends. We started taking the pictures below and she just lost it!! I think she knew she was leaving...what an advanced baby! :)

Yellow Veggies

We've begun the world of veggies with Tessa. Here she is having her 1st bites of squash. This was at the end of July. If she's anything like her mommy and daddy she will like anything and everything!!















The pictures below are from last night. She had sweet potatoes and couldn't get enough!! She loved them (even though it looks like she is spitting them out in the bottom pic)! She's getting used to this veggie thing! It's so fun to see her reactions to all this new stuff.

Introducing...

HARVEY THE HIGHLANDER!!!



Can I tell you how nice it is to have more space going to and from work? I love it! I love it!! I love it!!! Between all of our bags the Altima was becoming a low-rider! And how about the name? Pretty nice, huh?
