Tessie 2 mo

Tessie had her 2 month checkup today and is perfect. At 12lb 14oz, 22.5in long, she's in the 93rd percentile for weight. She has started smiling when we talk to her and has the cutest little chunk from her cheeks to her ankles. We all love her, but Ruth is crazy about her. She is known to shout out in quiet places (like sacrament meeting), "Tessie! Hi Tessie! Tessie, Tessie! I love her!" It's very cute.

Tessie's baby blessing

We were so happy to have two sets of grandparents attend W. Elizabeth's baby blessing on November 1st. Daniel gave her a beautiful blessing. 


She was blessed

  • With the name Wendy Elizabeth Carr (named after her loving mother 'Wendy' and Elizabeth Warren, an ancestor who crossed the Atlantic on the Mayflower who fled her home and country for a chance to worship God according to her conscience)
  • To stand for truth and righteousness, and to sacrifice for the Lord
  • To take the best from her parents and to be patient with their weaknesses
  • With a sweet spirit of reconciliation
  • With a desire to serve the Lord in the temple and missionary service, and to be sealed in marriage
  • That her days will be lengthened out that she may fulfill her missions upon the earth
