Tessa's party

We celebrated Tessa's birthday party on Jan 8 with our immediate family and I think it turned out really cute :) I also didn't want to forget anything about it so there are like a zillion pictures ha!

Some of her gifts.

And I had everyone write a birthday message on a picture frame for her like we did for Dublin's 1st birthday.

Daddy and daughter. She really does have him wrapped around her little finger :)

Dublin and his Grandpa.

I LOVE how much he loves him!!

He asked to have his picture taken with his Daddy after he finished taking pictures with his Grandpa.

Playing with her Aunt Aubrey :)

Getting ready to open presents.

Of all the things we got her she wanted the card...to eat it. Next year that's all she's getting ;)

Notice she still has the card in her hand :)

Her adorable blanket from Grandma and Grandpa Challman! She loves it already!

She stopped opening her presents to make a phone call.

So I finished for her :) Modeling of her new jammies. Or as Caitlin would say "make love to the jammies"...so whatever that means ha ha.

Courtney was the only adult not over the weight limit for Tessa's chair :)

Happy Birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Tessa. Happy birthday to you!!

She was not shy and knew exactly what to do!

She likes her mommy's cupcakes :)

Dublin was checking on her :)

Ha ha I love when she eats like this. How do the little piggies eat? oink oink!! ha

That's a satisfied little face :)

Oh Tessa I can't believe that you're already 1! Well almost 1. You are such a beautiful child and have the sweetest personality. I love you whole bunches and lots!!
