Tenielle Turns 1 Year Old

The cake my mother and I made. Didn't turn out too bad.

Florida Trip with the Nordquists November 2007

Tenielle is Walking

Tenielle tooke her first steps on August 15th. By August 30th she was unstoppable. We went to the folks for a week and she didn't stop the whole week. As you can tell I haven't gotten a good picture because she's always moving so sorry for the blurriness.

So she's been walking for a couple weeks so how in the world do they squat down like this. My legs would be killing me.

Tenielle's first Teeth

On August 8th Tenielle's 2 bottom teeth popped through. Along with it came a new smile to show them off.

Milford Convention 2007

Milford convention was very hot this year. Tenielle had to do a little cooling off between meetings.

Just too cute

This Sunday we had to take pictures. Just too cute to pass up. The dress was kinda crinkly and not really Tenielle's style, but I think she pulled if off.

Tenielle is Crawling

Tenielle started crawling on Sunday July 22nd. She kinda has a funny crawl. She uses one foot and one knee for some reason. I think so it is easy to go from her bum to moving.

This was Tenielle getting very frustrated trying to crawl on Saturday July 21st. I guess it paid off because the next day she got the hang of it.

Saturday at the job

Oh soo sweet. Boy does she have you fooled.

No Tenielle it isn't food. YUCK.

Looks she's taking after me. Always blinks when the flash goes off. Poor Thing.

We went with Sean to the job on Saturday. We weren't a lot of help, but Tenielle enjoyed exploring. She's just started crawling a bit.

July 4th Camping Trip

We went camping for 9 days & 8 nights. It was my longest camping trip. We stayed at a KOA in Woodstock, NH. The mountains were beautiful this time of year. The weather was a little rainy for my tastes, but still a lot of fun all the same. We'll definitely have to do it again sometime.

We survived a 6 mile hike in the Lincoln Woods. Tenielle's first hike and she did amazingly well.

The gorgeous river along the Lincoln Woods Trail.

The three of us st Clark's trading post in Lincoln, NH.

Happy Face

Silly Face

Worried Face

Tenielle is thinking....is it food? Come closer so I can see.

Please no more baby fish.

Ummmmm...What tasty fingers I have. Must be no concession stand at this basketball game.

Tenielle is watching the very exciting basketball game. Sean, Brendan, Jess and Tom were playing. She is quite the cheerleader. She had to clap for daddy's awesome plays.

With every camping trip you've got to do a little swimming. Tenielle got her first chance. She thought the water was a little cold though. She tried out the KOA pool and the the frigid mountain stream. Oddly enough she liked the stream more. You'd think is was colder and it was, but I think she liked the sand between her toes the best. Kids and dirt just seem to attract each other.

Tenielle attends a Birthday Party

This is Gregory and these pictures are from his 2nd birthday party.

On the right is his big sister, Annabelle. She fills in as Tenielle's big sister as well.

This was Tenielle's first birthday party. And did she ever enjoy herself. She loved this little car.
