We had a great 1st Birthday for Tessa. The sun finally came out after weeks of rain and all the kids got top play on the front lawn. Aunt Kirsten came in town to help celebrate and represent the Ellis clan since Omi and Grandpa were out of town. Grams and Poppa Tim couldn't make it either but we were thinking of them (and Uncle Keith - get well soon). Bobby and Kirsten helped Tessa "smear" her cake every where. I ended yp taking her upstair into our shower and hosing her down. Unfortunately I didn't get all of the icing out of her hair (hence the mohawk pictures).
She partied like a Rock Star and suffered the consequences. After we put her down for bed-time she woke up around 9:30pm with a belly ache and needed some soothing. And the next morning she had a fever and was very cranky. But she's a trooper and after her 2nd nap she was back to her normal self.
I still cannot beleive that I have a 1-yr old. She is so amazing and of course I think she's a genius. Ever since she had the tubes put in her ears, she has really started talking. She says her name now, and tries to repeat what we say. My favorite is "Wow". It sounds dead on and neither of us use that word, so it must be something she picked up in daycare.
