This is a little Santa outfit  that has been passed down through the cousins.  My Mom bought it when Tessa was little and then saved it and we squeezed everyone of the girls into it at Christmastime.  It is a little cheesy but I wanted to keep the tradition going.

 We took the pictures right before naptime so she was pretty sleepy and not too smiley.  She is also not a big fan of dresses.  She prefers soft comfortable clothes.

 Here is her four month picture.  She is pretty adorable.  She is now at the 15 pound mark.  Her eyes are a very dark grey and her hair has lightened up at the roots to a dark blond or a very light brown.  Her pediatrician says that she is in perfect health and that she is off the charts for height and weight.

I love her pudgy cheeks! 

Grandma likes to stop by after work so she can kiss on those sweet cheeks. 

Playing in her Bumbo chair.  She is so strong.  She holds her neck up high most of the time now and she has started trying to sit up from a semi-inclined position.  After bathtime when I lay her on the bed on my pillow to her her dressed she gets her self almost sitting up.  She can't support herself without a pillow or something but she is getting there.

She is really good at picking up what she wants now and getting it to her mouth.  She prefers to chew on her fingers but if there is a toy around she will shove it in her mouth and bite all over it.  She is still drooling a lot but no signs of any teeth.
