5 days....

We went to the Doctor today. Well, really we just saw the nurse. Tessa weighed in at 8lbs .5 oz. Good eating little Tess. She's a good baby, hardly cries at all (although we *love* it when she cries. It's so girly!) and is a pretty good sleeper. For 2 days she had her days and nights mixed up, but I THINK we're getting back on track.
We love her, and we're all just soooo smitten by her. She could get pretty much anything from us. As James would say, "that Tess is a cute baby girl. She's so cute!"

*She has now received the nickname of bumblebee from James.


Daddy and Tessa share the same nose and mouth! ENJOY!

Looks like there's another girl version of the man! Eliza's mannerisms are a lot like Chris's and at times she resembles him (always in a girly way, though!). Such a remarkable resemblance between Daddy and Daughter!

I love Tessa's nickname.
But, what the crap?! She only had 2 DAYS that her days were mixed up with the nights?!

Yeah for the Duckers! She looks just like Dorian! There is nothing in the world as wonderful as having a new baby in your house. Enjoy it! We miss it!

Amber said...
