Tessa loves love




Tessa's first Valentine's Day was filled with love, as every day is for her, only more so, though, because of her Valentine's Day outfits from Grandma & Grandpa and because she got to spend Valentine's night with Mima. From what I hear, they had a blast. :) Mima was the cool babysitter and let Tessa stay up a little later than normal, but she was already asleep by the time we got home around 9:30 p.m. Party pooper! (This couldn't be more true, as she had poopy pants on the washer when we got home.)

Tessa is on the verge of crawling; right now, she's doing what Mima calls the inch worm. She's getting so strong! She hasn't sat up by herself, but if we position her, she can keep her balance for a while. Tessa has started to eat stage 1 baby food other than cereal. We don't want her to get a sweet tooth like her Daddy, but to appease him, we started her on sweet potatoes, which he loves. It's a good compromise. The other choice was carrots, which Eric likes, too.

New Tessa Loves:
*Her Glo worm
*Tessa Hat! (This involves me sitting Tessa on my head and saying, "Tessa hat!" This garners automatic smiles.)
*Samantha, who is now considered Tessa's kitty cat. Tessa follows her with her eyes, and when Sam sits there and stares at Tessa, she starts laughing.

Tessa Protests:
*Getting her snotty nose wiped
*Having lotion put on her face

Oh my goodness, I just love reading about Tessa and everything she is doing now! I can't wait to meet her! Oh, and I love the picture of her butt. :)
