Yeah! Tessa is two!
Anthony stayed late enough in the morning to be there to wake her up. We went into her room singing happy b-day. Anthony was holding a huge birthday balloon that scared Tessa right out of her footie pj's. She grabbed onto me so fast that she left a long scratch down the front of my neck. I asked her if she liked her balloon, and she said, "NO BOON!" It only took a few minutes though before she was trying to wrestle it into her crib. In fact, when we got to Women's Bible Study at the church, she told everyone she met that she got a balloon by running up to people and shouting "BOON!".
Anthony also bought Tessa two flowers. They are pink roses and Tessa loves to smell them, of course. She also got an Aquadoodle that hangs on the wall. After we put that up, her other two gifts might have been air. She drew and drew on that thing. And then she would get so excited about the whole drawing-on-the-wall experience that she would run into the living room screaming COLOR!! to us and then run back out again.
Tragedy struck right before dinner. Tessa had been playing outside and came running in for a drink. So I started to unzip her coat and inadvertently unzipped her skin on her neck, too. She cried a long time over that. You should be able to see the spot in one of the pics. Poor baby. That explains the puffy red eyes in the cupcake picture. She cheered up considerably at that point. You can also see her telling her Daddy to stop unwrapping her present and let her do it. I don't know where she gets that from! ;)
