Well.... It happened. She went and turned 1 on us!!!! Tess had a full week of birthday fun starting the week before in Bakersfield where she spent time with Omi, Grammy and Grandad. We took her to get her first Ice Cream at Dewars, and she loved every bite. Grammy also took Tess to Toys r Us to pick out her birthday present. I was a bit skeptical she would be able to do that....but after purusing the aisels for a while she finally found what she wanted. A dolly stroller, and a furry bunny. and She LOVES them.
