Tegan's Photo Shoot

This is being posted a bit late.....but it is just soooo cute and very worthy of it's own post!  Tegan's fabulous aide, Carolyn, was asked to have photos done for our local college program guide....and she asked Tegan to be the one to be in the photo shoot!  I was sooo excited and as you will see in the video, so was Miss Tegan.
It was so cute, I almost teared up watching how happy and squealy she was in front of the flashing camera lights(plus, I think she had a little crush on the photographer....what?! did I say that??? ) :D :D
Anyway, here is Tegan's very first shoot....and I am so excited to see the actual pictures and see them published this fall:)  I will post the pics as soooon as I have them in my hands!



As many mamas of kiddos like Tegan know, it is not that easy to find something Tegan enjoys as well as the other kids.  Tegan's interest change daily it seems, and due to her sensory issues I am always scared to try anything new.  If Tegan doesn't like something, the entire family will have no choice to go along with Tegan because the scream that can come out of this girlie is somthing else!  So when I took the kids to my family reunion and my brother had a hotel with a waterslide, I had no choice but to try this new adventure out with Tegan...and as you can see by the picture...it was a definate hit!! Amazing...something to add to our list of things we can do without Tegan freaking out...Yipppeeeeee!  I actually couldn't believe how much she loved the waterslide, I was so happy for not only her, but the rest of the kids as well.  Doing the stairs up to the slide was a whole other story...my legs were like jello at the end of the day, not to mention the "claw" marks on my back from Tegan trying to let me know that she DID NOT want to stop watersliding:) I have to say it was actually the best day I have had with the kids, and was so awesome to see Tegan's laughs, giggles, claps, and shrieks doing something with her brothers and sisters!  Definately putting this on Tegan's list of things to do:)

Just cause....She is so darn cute

There really is no maaaajor point to this video...at all:D  I just think Tegan is so super cute, especially with her one of a kind, crazy bed head in the mornings....actually what am I talking about, she really rocks this hairdo during the day as well!
