Tessa is three now! She loves birthdays and reveled this September in her own. (Yes, my posts are backed up a few months again.)
Tessa is a very fun, active, and strong-willed girl. She loves being a girl and thinks anything that is glittery and pink is meant for her. She is adventurous, outgoing, and independent. Her enjoyment with dancing, singing, jumping, sliding, tumbling, bike riding etc. is delightful. Often her overflowing energy precludes her need for sleep....
Tessa also loves playing with her brothers. She has made many of her own lego creations and does a good imitation of sound effects for light sabers. She follows Jordan's example in her imaginative play, and this summer started enjoying drawing and crafting too. I find her sitting to "read" books for longer periods of time too. I really welcome the prospect of quieter activities consuming her attention.
Recently she has taken the step to using the big girl potty. Her language is advancing too, and it is fun to see her vocalize all her thoughts. Tessa loves all the special people in her life, especially cousins and Grandmas. She says that when she grows up she wants to be a mom.
We love her very much and look forward to another wonderful year!
