Sleeping Beauty!

Car rides almost always put her to sleep! I just love the way her cute little hand is positioned! I felt so bad when I had to take her out of the car! So adorable!

I can't believe my little Tess is almost 6 months old...the last 6 months have been so amazing and have just flew by! I always new having children would be such a great experience but I never realized how much joy such a little human being can bring!

There are a million and ten things I just love about Tessa!
Here are just a couple:

The way she kicks her legs when she gets really excited.
Her waking up squeals, even though its so early in the morning, it always brings a smile to my face.
AND how every morning she wakes up with a smile.
The way she grabs my fingers and holds on so tight.
How she will twist her little neck around to follow me every where I go.
How excited she gets when she is in her jumper.
The way she sings the ABC song with me and when I stop, she stops and gives me a weird face until I start again.
How she gets really excited and trys grabbing for the bottle whenever she see's me coming with one.
Love the way she smells, especially after bath time...not so much when she has a poopy diaper though :-)
How she looks around after she rolls over.

The way she wraps her little arms around me when I hold her.
How she can nap for hours if your cuddled up on the couch with her.
Watching her learn new things - and how wide her eyes get when she see's something new or exciting.
How she tries eating her toes whenever she gets the chance.
She stares at the cats so much now...but when they get close she pulls on their hair.
The way she looks when she sleeps...so peaceful!
The way she rubs her head and eyes when she is sleepy.

 I truly love EVERYTHING about her!

Now comes the picture overload:
Looks like such a big girl in her high chair
Big smiles and giggles!
She loves her Jumper
Bathtime at Nana's
LOVE her reaction in this photo
Jessica feeding her breakfast
So Adorable
Such a cutie...a drooling cutie!
Standing up (with help!) in her cute outfit!
Getting Sleepy

 I love this picture of her...those cheeks!
Such a big girl in her high chair!
Her new "fishing" hat as Casey calls it!
Skyping with Nana!
My sleeping beauty!

Tessa Rolled Over!

0 comments


I was cooking dinner and went to check on Tessa and she was on her stomach!!!! She finally rolled over! I put her back on her back and she rolled over again...she did it like 4 or 5 times in a row! I tried getting it on camera but she stopped rolling over as quickly! She finally rolls over at the end of the video above!

5 Months Already!

0 comments
Tessa is already 5 months old!!!! Time sure does go by quick! She is just so so so much fun!! Since I don't have much time to write much...after only getting 4 hours of sleep last night I really need to get to bed...so here is picture overload with some commentary! ENJOY!

FINALLY GOT A GOOD PICTURE
I SAY FINALLY BECAUSE MOST OF THEM WERE OF HER TRYING TO GET TO HER FEET!
SHE IS REALLY LIKING TUMMY TIME NOW
SHE IS ALWAYS SMILING!
WELL...MOST OF THE TIME!
SHE LOVES HER EXERSAUCER
BUT PREFERS JUST TO CHEW...ON ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING
SHE IS REALLY REACHING OUT TO TOUCH OUR FACES...SHE LOVES THE NOSE!
AND THE LIPS...
AND HER DADDY...WHO JUST WOKE UP!
FIRST TIME PLAYING OUTSIDE, SHE REALLY LOVED IT
BUT QUICKLY GOT SICK OF ME TAKING PICTURES
AND JUST IGNORED ME....
THEN SHE PASSED OUT ON THE COUCH.... :-)
SHE HASN'T ROLLED ALL THE WAY OVER YET...BUT IS ALWAYS PLAYING ON HER SIDE. SHE IS ALSO USUALLY ON HER SIDE WHEN WE WAKE HER UP IN THE MORNING...SOON SHE WILL BE ROLLING OVER!
MOST OF THE TIME HER LEGS ARE STRAIGHT UP IN THE AIR
SHE IS OUR LITTLE YOGA BABY!
CONSTANTLY GRABBING HER LEFT FOOT...
AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY I KEEP TAKING PICTURES OF HER
SITTING UP FOR LITERALLY ONE SEC...SHE SLOWLY FELL TO THE SIDE AFTER THIS PICTURE...OOPS!
ON HER TUMMY!!!
EATING HER TOES!
IT IS SOOOO HARD TO CHANGE HER DIAPER NOW BECAUSE ALL SHE WANTS TO DO IS PUT HER FEET IN HER MOUTH! IT IS HARD TO GET A DIAPER ON HER AND SHE GETS MAD WHEN YOU TAKE THAT FOOT AWAY ROM HER MOUTH!
YES...I AM A LITTLE OBSESSED?! BUT HOW CAN YOU NOT BE! SHE IS SO CUTE!!!


UNTIL NEXT TIME...HERE IS A CUTE SMILE TO WARM YOUR HEART!
