Tess & Her Cuz "The Fuzz"

Tess got to meet her cousin Andrew for the first time today! Ryan's sister Laura is visiting this week from Colorado, and she brought "The Fuzz" with her! You can probably guess how he got his nickname. He is such a cute, smiley baby and that hair is so soft!

Andrew was born on November 10th, almost exactly one month before Tess. It's fun to see everything he does and know that she'll be doing the same things soon. While Andrew does show Tess up in the hair department, there is no rivalry here (conveniently, both are Papa's favorite grandbabies when the other isn't around!). We think they hit it off swimmingly and will become the best of friends!

Some cute pics of the siblings and their wee ones.

And these are a few pics from our ward Primary activity this week. We had a pizza party and the kids played games with their new teachers. We had an amazing turnout--SO MANY KIDS! We have the best kids in our Primary--I love being with them!

Lights, Camera, Not a Lot of Action!

I've been trying hard the past couple days to get some video of Tess at her cooing, cheerful best. Unfortunately, she doesn't seem to perform well under pressure; she'll only respond to me when the camera is turned off. But I know her Dip is getting anxious for more footage by now, so I decided to go ahead and post what I've got. I'm still figuring out my video editing software, so bear with me.



And at the request of my sister, here's a bellybutton shot:

For some reason, I'm unable to resist comparing Tess to small, furry animals.
You have to admit, there are some similarities.

So indulge me...

She has her dad's eyelashes--they are so long and beautiful! She definitely didn't get them from me!

And a few more active shots. Gotta love the shoes from Laura!
