goose eggs and christmas spirit



The other day Tegan had her first big owie resulting in her very first goose egg! Learning to run and jump brings an entire new world into our lives...the world of bruises, scrapes and too many tears. Tegan went to bend over and lost her balance causing her little head to crash down on the sub woofer. I ran to her and picked her up in my arms trying to fight back my own tears. What was a little white scratch when I picked her up quickly turned into a huge scrape and bruised goose egg :( Zach ran for the motrin and ice while I was heading out the door to the ER. As soon as I got her outside she was smiling and talking as if nothing happened. We decided she was just fine so I called the ER instead. She was up and running around and playing not even 20 minutes after her fall. She handled it so well, where as I cried every time I looked at her poor little head.
After trying and trying to fight back all our excitement for the upcoming holiday season we finally just gave in and put up the christmas tree. Our new tradition will be to decorate for christmas and put the tree up the sunday before Tegan's birthday. Our shopping is just about done, the gifts are wrapped and put under the tree and that holiday feel is in the air! We can't wait for this christmas! Tegan will open her own gifts and play with her toys :) I can't believe I will have a one year old this christmas! Tegan's birthday is quickly approaching! Only 3 days and counting. This week is a busy week of baking, cleaning and finishing up last minute plans before her big birthday bash:)





here are a few videos for your viewing pleasure :) Nothing brings a smile to my face like watching my little miracle cutting up the rug with her sweet dance mooves! haha
This is what a long day of dancing does to you...
