4 months

Time is just flying on by. Tessa is four months old now, and just as sweet as ever! She is truly the happiest, smiliest, sweetest babe ever. Thank goodness she is because a certain two year old requires about 90% of my attention. Don't worry though, she gets lots of lovin' too! At four months she....

Weighs 12 lbs. 13.oz...25%
is 24 1/2 inches long...75%
She loves to play in her exersaucer and sit in her bumbo seat
Wears size 1-2 diapers
Wears 0-3 month clothes. 3-6 are just barely starting to fit
Started grabbing at her toys on her play mat
Has the cutest little giggle
Can roll over both ways
Her eyes are dark grayish greenish
Smiles at any and everyone
Sleeps amazingly well. About 10-11 hours
Takes 3 naps. In her crib! ( never thought I'd have a crib napper.. Haha)
Still sleeps in her cradle next to me :)
Has her hands in her mouth most of the time
Nurses every 3-4 hours. About 4-5 ounces
She makes the cutest noises ever
Loves her big brother! She watches him all the time and smiles at him non stop
She like to be held facing outward...little nosey pants
She is such a joy and I am so blessed to be her mama!

3 months!

Here we are again, another month older. I can't even begin to explain how much I love this little girl. She is seriously the best baby in the world. I never knew something could be too sweet until I met Tessa. I just look at her and my heart gets so full and I get all teary eyed. I am so in love! Here is what she has been up to:

smiles, smiles, smiles...all you have to do is look at her and she smiles back.
She loves to be talked to. She gets so excited and starts kicking her little feet and. waving her little arms
She tries so hard to talk back and makes the cutest goos and squeals
sleeps through the night...about 8 or 9 hours straight! Amazing
Wakes up around 6:30 or 7:00
Still sleeping a ton during the day.
Barely ever cries
Nurses every 3-4 hours
Rarely spits up anymore...Yay!!!!!
She is getting the cutest little chub on her. I love it.
Starting to drool a lot
Loves her binky
Not so fond of getting strapped in her car seat, but once she is in, she is fine.
Mom is back to work now so she gets a lot of daddy time, which also means bottles, which she does great with :)
Still fits in newborn clothes but can wear 3 months too.
She is the best, happiest, most amazing baby girl ever!

My Heaven

This is what I get to wake up to every morning plus my little lady to my left! Moments like these make me not mind that Trent comes in our bed every night. I love my little family.

Toms Farms

My Mom, Trent Tessa and I took advantage of the nice weather over the weekend and
 headed out to Toms Farms for some fun! There is so much to do there.
Trent had a blast! He: Fed the animals at the petting zoo, Rode the ponies, Slid down the giant slide, Rode the train, Rode on the carousel, Shot some guns, Made wishes in the pond and Enjoyed a strawberry ice cream. cone (Click on the collage to make it bigger)

These Moments...

Make me one proud momma!

Another Oldie but Goodie

This is another video of Trent from over a year ago but I love it and since I figured out how to post from my phone, I just had to share. Again, sorry its sideways. Haven't figured that part out yet.

Beach

Today we went to the beach with our little family of 4. Even though it was freezing we still had so much fun! We played in the sand, made sand castles and took a walk on the pier. I was so mad I forgot my camera. These are all from my phone. It was way too cold for Tessa girl so I didn't get one of her in her swim suit, but trust me, it was a cuuuttttee sight to see.
