First Day of School

Yay! School is finally here again! What a life saver for mommy! For some perspective, here was Tessa last year on her first day of school:

And then this year:

Incidentally, she has strep right now. In fact, she had it in this picture (unbeknownst to us at the time). She will be contagious until tomorrow at lunch. Don't all y'all come over at once, now, you hear? Hey, don't worry about Tessa. This is an excuse to stay in her pajamas all day and watch hours of TV. She is lovin' it. Also, she is thrilled that her medicine is pink and sparkly. At least I don't have to hold her down to get her to take it, huh?

She never has had strep, but here's a funny co-inky dink. A few days ago Anthony had pulled out his photo-album/scrapbook that his mom had made him of his life. In it were pics of him after having his tonsils yanked. He said that he kept getting strep until they were removed. Hmmm.
