Tessa is my cousin…isn’t she cute?! Last week I got to capture some pretty special moments as Tessa had celebrated her first birthday. She also experienced her very first taste of sugar…and though it was a mild taste (in the form of a semi-sweet pumpkin muffin!) she sure loved it.
This girl has the bluest eyes ever! 
I love the scrunchy face…
I also took a few shots of Tessa just playing at home on a non-party day:


Just before I came over she took a tumble and you can see she’s got a bit of a fat-lip, but she’s still cute as a button (as my grandma would say)





Happy First Birthday sweet Tessa : ) I hope these photos will be your memories for years to come!
