My Mad, Mad Girls!

Tessa was in her swing tonight as happy as can be.
I went to get the camera and came back to a crying
baby! After I snapped a few pictures, this one below
reminded me of one I had taken of Samantha when she
was mad in her Bumbo seat! If you didn't see it before,
you should now! They are definitely sisters!!

Tessa Noel - 8 weeks old!

Tomorrow marks 8 weeks for our little lovebug Tessa.
She is growing like crazy! As you can see, we have a healthy
eater on our hands! Those cheeks and that chin (or two) don't
hide anything! As for her hair, well she has a little faux-hawk
going on. It likes to stand up all on it's own!!

The past few days...

Samantha helping Daddy make breakfast!


Princess Samantha. This is the first time she has
really wanted to dress up. She never liked the way
the dresses felt and always said they are "scratchy."
But today, alas, we have a princess!!

Park Playdate!

Today we went to Flintridge park with our friends Sarah, Lily & Sadie and Jenn, Tyler & Reagan. Tessa & baby Reagan slept thru the entire event! Samantha on the other hand had a great time swinging, playing and digging in the sand.

Day at Grandma and Grandpa's!

We went to Grandma and Grandpa's on Sunday 1/18/09. Samantha went swimming with Daddy in their spa and learned to float herself using the duckies! Tessa met her cousin Hayley for the first time. It was a fun day for all!

Little Baby Hands and Feet

Twins!??

The top picture is Samantha at 2 months. The bottom picture is Tessa at almost 6 weeks. Can you tell they're related!??

Sisterly Love!

Today we are having an indoor pajama day. The girls have matching PJs and modeled them so well this morning. Samantha is the best big sister to Tessa. She is always asking to hold her and she gives her kisses all the time. I am so glad they have each other to grow up with.

Making new friends!!

Tessa and her new friend Reagan. Tessa is just 13 days older than Reagan and Reagan's big brother Ty-Ty (Tyler) is one of Samantha's best buddies.

Our trip to the duck pond!

I took the girls to feed the ducks today. The "mommy goose" nibbled Samantha's fingers because she wouldn't throw the bread! It was a short visit to the duck pond, but fun nonetheless. Samantha was a sweetie and "let" me snap these photos of her.

Tessa Noel - 1 month old!!

Here are some pics from Tessa's first photo shoot. She is 1 month old today and growing so fast! Enjoy!

Happy New Year!!

Here are just a few pics of Tessa, who is now over 4 weeks old and just shy of 1 month. She sure loves her showers!! We hope you all had a great New Year's celebration and wish you all health and happiness in 2009.
