This little girl has been making big strides lately! She has learned to roll over from her back to her stomach, and actually prefers to be on her stomach now. This has given her a little sense of freedom, and will hopefully encourage her to try an army crawl or some other type of movement. She uses both of her legs to push herself around in her walker, although she still only goes backwards. She waves bye bye and plays peek a boo. She loves to eat, and wants to try whatever I'm eating. She loves being outside, and thoroughly enjoyed her first swim in the pool the other day.

As far as her malformation goes-there are two portions, located on her back, that have been growing. For now we are just monitoring them, so I would ask you to pray that they would not continue getting larger. Other than that, miss Tessa remains happy and healthy!
