Beach Trip





Tessa has been working hard on her behavior at school. We correlate this behavior with an incentive chart at home. She chooses the incentive, and then she has to work HARD to achieve her goal. This time, it was a trip to the beach. Was this a good idea with a newborn? Well, it was a learning experience and a challenge...But overall, it was fun! Here are some fun pictures capturing our time in Myrtle Beach!

Snow Day 1-3
Wow! While I did enjoy the first snow day, I was going stir-crazy on Snow Day #2. Now that tomorrow will mark #4, I am not sure I will survive this boredom! :)
Tessa and I have been having fun. We have done her "homework", which consists of studying the letter Z, which she was going to focus on this week at school. We had done crafts, practiced writing it, saying it, and saying words that begin with a Z. She AMAZES me at the things she picks up. She is beginning to notice letters everywhere, and now that she is grasping sounds, she is pointing them out in conversations. I am so proud of her!
We have also played in the snow, rolled in the snow, ate the snow (not the yellow snow), made snow angels, made a HUGE snowman (Thanks to Daddy). I'll try to get some pictures up! We have also had lots of hot chocolate, watched Little Rascals, and played with many of her new Christmas toys and games!
She has made so many gains over the past 4 months with us, and we can only continue to THANK GOD for His mighty hand on her life!
Her new thing is forgiveness. So, this morning, she told me she forgave me when I bobbled her cup a bit before putting it down on the table. She also asks for forgiveness, and she seems to understand each day, more and more, God's love for her. She likes to tell God that she loves Him the most.
