Tessa's BDay

It just doesn't even seem enough to say that we love having this girl in our family.  The other day I asked Caden what is 3 things our family likes to do.  He said Play sports, watch movies and adore Tessa.  I certainly agree!

 The main event of Tessa's birthday was her party that night.  Having already celebrated with my family, we spent the evening with the Schow side.

Two brothers and their birthday girls.  Kambree turned 1 a few days earlier.

It was so fun to have our family together to celebrate our little girl.

A few fun things about Tessa:

We didn't buckle Tessa in during the short trip home from church this day and she thought it was hilarious to stand up, turn around, and start talking to Chad.  

Just relaxing one day walking around RC Willey.

Tessa loves being outside and LOVES playing in the dirt.  She's not close to walking and at this point, I wish she'd learn because I'm tired of filthy pants.

She'll comb my hair and her hair.

The more her personality comes out, the more fun we have with her around.  We call her Tessa Messa, Little Missy, Missy Messa and Little Sister.  She says a few words--Dada, Bubu (what she calls the boys), and UhOh.  She also signs "more" and "milk" and she waves.

After such an epic arrival to our family, we knew we were in for an adventure having her in our family!
