Will Catelynn And Tyler's Teen Mom OG Gift Help Secure A Visit With Carly?

Catelynn and Tyler have not had a Teen Mom OG visit with Carly in nearly two years; last season, Cate attempted to coordinate a time to meet to no avail.

Cate and Ty agreed -- and the young mom admitted they hadn't been excellent about sending presents.


Dawn talked to the two about Carly's upcoming 10th birthday and urged them to do "something special for her."


"We can't move backward in time," Dawn added. "She understands who her birth parents are," she continued, while Tyler chimed in with, "She understands they suck at giving presents."


"We can change the direction of that," Dawn was quick to assert.


Cate and Tyler took Dawn's suggestions and worked to create Carly a scrapbook. The number of pictures and notes contained special significance for the high school sweethearts and their little girl: Cate and Tyler made a similar keepsake for the then-toddler years prior.


"I think me and Tyler will each write her a letter, although I was thinking I was going to add some wedding pictures she instructed her mom April and producer Kerthy. "I feel like it will be special to her because a lot of adopted children do not get stuff like that."
