Tessa's 3

We have a 3 year old now!


Tessa is a great kid! She is so much fun. She is super playful and active. She loves rough housing, tickling, chasing, playing with her friends/cousins, playing at the playground, going swimming, playing at the splash pad. Here she is having a ball chasing a cousin.



Tessa loves playing at the children's museum at Thanksgiving Point. Here the girls are after climbing all the way up to the plane at the top of the play structure.


She also has a really active imagination. She loves playing pretend. She loves putting on her fairy wings and tutu and pretending she is a princess or fairy or fairy princess. She wears them all the time. Here she is wearing a tutu out on a walk even.


She loves acting out some of her favorite movies/activities. We'll play Tinkerbell from Secret of the Wings all the time or pretend we're going to the Princess Party. She also loves reading which we do all the time. She has some of her favorite books which we read again and again. It's fun though because then we'll talk about them later and I really like that we're starting to have conversations about books.

She really likes artwork as well. We color a lot as well as stamp, paint, color with chalk, and decorate. Here she is decorating her birthday cake.



Here Tessa is with a crown she decorated. She got a gift for her birthday of crowns and wands with decorating paint and stickers and they stayed out on the table for nearly a week since Tessa just wanted to keep decorating them all the time.


This has been the first year Tessa has been able to actually blow out her candles so that was fun.



Tessa and Jenny have gotten to be so sweet together and so much fun for each other lately. They'll chase each other around and tickle and hug each other.  Lately even, sometimes when I'm holding Jenny, Tessa will ask me to set Jenny down but not so I can hold Tessa instead of Jenny but so Tessa and Jenny can play together.


Tessa has been liking taking pictures lately. Here is some of her work. Not bad for a 3 year old!



We're so glad to have our Tessa. She is such a great little 3-year-old and were so glad to have her in our family.
