1st Birthday

Where has the time gone?

A week from this Saturaday Tessa will be 1 year old.

We can't believe it!

Getting Settled

Well We have been moved in for a couple of weeks now and the dust in finally starting to settle. I still can't find the drawer with the spoons when I need one but it won't be long now before I figure it all out. the house is coming together nicely all the pictures and other decoration are up and there are really no more major project for the inside of the house. The outside is another issue though, We have spent the last couple of nights cutting bushes and trees and we even took a big load to the dump. It is starting to come together, but it is getting hot so some of those projects might have to wait.

Tessa is getting more independent everyday. She has decided that she can climb and now when the step stool come out she thinks it is a must to climb it. We took her to the park the other day and she decided to climb the stairs on the jungle gym as well. She has also discovered a new game, which we don't know where it come from because neither Tara or I have ever played it with her. she will act like she is going to hand you something, and then right before you grab she will turn around and run away (giggling the whole time). It quite cute.

Tara is enjoying being home for the summer and is trying new things with Tessa, they just started going to a music class at the library. But Tara has discovered the "Twilight" books and she is already on the third book and she started last week. Getting settled in Scottsdale has been hard because we are going into our busiest time of the year, but I have really enjoyed working with the people there and I have a great staff. We do a theme each year for the pools and my pool's theme this year is the 80's. They do a costume contest each year so even though I Hate dressing up, i took one for the team and dresses as the guys from Miami Vice. ( I only put that in because Tara would have posted the picture anyway).
