Weekend of Firsts

Tessa had a very busy weekend traveling to Forest Hills for James’ brother and Sara’s wedding. She experienced many firsts! First time flying in an airplane, first time in a hotel, and her first time camping. It started with her first plane ride to Sacramento. She did such an amazing job on the plane. She was […]

Grab

Tessa is getting good at grabbing and picking up toys from the sitting position. Even round objects like balls. The video is short because my phone ran out of space so it stopped recording 🙁

2nd tooth!

Tessa’s second bottom tooth is starting to push through! You can feel the ridges. I want to get a picture but every time you open her mouth to take one she sticks out her tongue.

Cereal

After seeing the dr last week she gave me the ok to start giving Tessa cereal. She said at 6 months the point of giving them cereal is to get them used to swallowing something other than milk and to get them used to a spoon. She said to start with 1 teaspoon of cereal […]

Butt to Belly

Tessa has learned to get to belly from the sitting position. From sitting up she leans forwards and gets to her belly. I’m still trying to catch it on video.

Runny nose

The night after getting her shots Tessa started getting a runny nose. I don’t know if the two were related or if it was just a coincidence. That night was rough! She was up crying every two hours because she couldn’t breathe and wasn’t feeling well. I spent most of the night holding her upright […]

1st Beach Trip

Today we went down to Oceanside to celebrate Madi’s 20th, my 30th and Uncle Kurt’s 50th Birthday at the beach. This was Tessa’s first trip to the beach and she loved it! She was so well behaved and was happy all day. She wasn’t even afraid of the waves or cold water. Here are some […]

Reach and Switch

Tessa has been doing so much lately! While playing I’ve noticed that she will reach for toys with both hands and pick things up with both hands…even while sitting! She has been playing with smaller objects such as her shape ball. The other day she was holding the star shape and switching it back and […]

1st time playing in the bath

I was lucky enough to have a friend who gave me a bunch of stuff for Tessa and one of those things was a great seat to use in the bath tub. We never had to buy one of those baby bath tubs. The seat has been working great and Tessa has always loved baths. […]
