Swim, Swim, Swim







Tess loves to swim! Brad is a fish and I guess she's just like him. I'm even beginning to like swimming. We go swimming and play in the water at least once a week if not more. We're now regulars at Aunt JaNae's pool day. Tess actually looks like she's trying to swim because she moves her arms and kicks her legs at the same time. She loves splashing, of course, and she doesn't even mind being dunked. She even likes to fall asleep in the pool. Check out those lovely chub-chub thighs and the cute sunglasses Whitney gave her!

Cabin Fever





We went to the cabin for the first time at the beginning of June. We couldn't wait anymore! Our friends, the Francos, came with us and we had a ton of fun while fishing, eating, playing Guitar Hero, roasting marshmallows, eating, playing in the river with the kids, eating, riding the mini-motorcycle, and did I mention eating! Tess loves the outdoors just as much as us... well, maybe a little more-she loves eating rocks. Silly girl! She's gonna be our little "Wild Billy the Mountain Girl" (like my dad used to call me).

On the Move



Tess has been crawling for over a month and a half now and she's pretty speedy. She's now pulling herself up on everything and even let's go sometimes to free-standing. I can tell that she'll be a girl that can't keep still and is always on the go!

The Joker


Grandma Jan figured out that red licorice is great for babies when teething. Tess absolutely loved it as witnessed by her sticky red face. She looks like the joker! Where did this face come from? I promise that my child doesn't normally look like this. Must have been the sugar to the brain!
