Tess was not at 100% this week. It might have been the effects of a lingering cold or the beginnings of a new one. It might have been that we were in Albuquerque for a long time and she missed her routine, her house, and her daddy. Or it might be that she is now beginning the teething thing. She certainly is chomping on things, hard and with vigor, including her pacifier which used to be for sucking. She's drooling loads and loads, and loads. And she's cranky much more than normal. Whatever the case, she's gotten herself on a few crying jags that have lasted far longer than our cheerful Tessa ever has before.
But she did enjoy much of our activities in Albuquerque. Like the aquarium and an extended family picnic. And of course all the grandparent attention. She was also quite a champ in the car. 3 and a half hours could have gone really wrong with a 3-month-old. She slept the entire trip down, and we only had to stop an hour from home for her to eat on the return trip. Pretty darned good, little girl!
