Happy Half Birthday

We had an impromptu birthday celebration today. My sweet baby is officially two and a half years old. She has grown 2 1/4 inches and gained 3 pounds since her second birthday. This explains why we needed to graduate to size 3T. Her vocabulary has exploded during these past few weeks and I've noticed a dramatic increase in her attention span. She's more active than ever and really keeps me on my toes. Her smile lights up our lives.

Daddy was able to have lunch with us before his afternoon flight. We headed out to a new bbq restaurant. The bonus of this place is the free ice cream, a big hit with our little sweet tooth.

Gamma brought cake, presents and a huge singing balloon to Wednesday family dinner. Notice Tessa is actually wearing the birthday hat, whoo hoo!

As always, Tessa loves being the center of attention and I think Happy Birthday might be her current favorite song. So, here's another video of my wonderful singing.
