not so secret crushes

So last night at Bunko we were all laughing at each other for our not so secret crushes. My friends names have been changed to save them some embarrassment, but to give you an idea: 

Pretty Skin Girl is obsessed with Christian Bale, but I can't say I blame her. He has a great smile and his lips are pretty sexy. 

Tall Blondie is in love with Shia Lebouf - we keep giving her a hard time because we still see him as the little Disney boy that he's been all these years. When you think of Blondie in love with the star of Holes, it's more yuck then ohhh, but he is getting cuter (did you see the last Indiana Jones) - So Blondies choice isn't that bad.

But Shortie Brunette does have a thing for Billy Bob Thornton, which rivals my weird obsession with David Bowie (not the hundred year old man he is today, but the Goblin King, Lord of the Labrynth from my youth)... I can't deny my love for the Goblin King. Maybe it was the big hair or lots of makeup, he had the best shimmer lip gloss. 

(I also have a thing for Robert Smith, lead singer for the cure... I do love a man in eyeliner). My crush on Robert is more for his music then focusing on how shallow I am by on caring about how a person looks.

Except when it comes to Ben Makenzie. I'm completely taken in by Ben. He is so hot. Seriously, if he ever moved to the ghetto of Mesa, Jason might have some competition on his hands.
Actually, I think that's exactly what I like about Ben is his character from the OC, Ryan. Ryan was always trying to save someone. He was always looking out for everyone, Jason has that tendency to be soft and caring. Then there was that silent brooding side of him - Jason doesn't really brood, but he can be quite cardboard at times, that's why I love him. My cardboard boy.

My sister doesn't call him my 'trophy husband' for nothing. I have to admit, he is pretty hot!

I'm sorry, but Billy Bob does not rival David Bowie. :) And how funny that you found a pic of Shia and Billy Bob together!

I got my entire family to call these not so secret crushes Movie Boyfriends and Movie Girlfriends. My Movie Boyfriend is totally Christian Bale. My mom's is Daniel Craig. So I vote for further adoption of the "Movie Boyfriend" term! :)

our baby has "indoor plumbing"

Image
The nice thing about my Thursday appointment was knowing the end was in sight. Sunday morning 5:30am I was scheduled to be induced. So we cleaned our house like mad on Saturday and my kids spent the night at their grandparents. We were up and ready to go. Paige drew me this picture before we left. Right to left: New baby, me, nightstand with cookies & candy (does my daughter know me or what?) When we got there - I needed some serious help to get ready to have the baby. I was dilated to a 2 and my cervix was really thick. So they gave me some internal gels that caused me to contract, I went through a series of 2, which means 5 hours of hell. It hurt & was a crappy 5 hours - but then my best friend came along, the anesthesiologist and gave me the epidural. Then they started the pitosum , which caused additional labor to set on... I couldn't care less. I felt wonderful (I love modern conveniences) - I love the goofy pictures of me & Jason just waiting around (don't we...

Sunday's child...

Image
Gavin or Abbey ? Barring any miracles... our new baby is scheduled to arrive on Sept 21st - not sure the approximate time. But this would make Buchanan Baby #3 a Sunday's child. I always liked the days of the week child poem and it will be interesting to see if it plays out with the personality of our new addition. Does it apply to the already established members of our family? Monday's child is fair of face. Tuesday's child is full of grace. Wednesday's child is full of woe. Thursday's child has far to go. Friday's child is loving and giving. Saturday's child works hard for a living, But the child who is born on the Sabbath day, Is bonny and blithe and good and gay. Paige Paige was born on July 9 th - she is a Tuesday's Child. Paige is full of grace . Grace means: a charming or attractive trait or characteristic. A pleasing appearance. Ease and suppleness of movement or bearing. Paige is charming and has possesses numerous wonderful traits. J...

a Christmas wish answered... come September

Image
So anyone who hasn't heard yet... yes. The Buchanan's are going to have a baby come this September. I'm not sure how it happened (yeah. I get the mechanics... I do have 2 kids) - But it's just that Jason & I don't really see too much of each other and after an exausting day of work, school, being on call, preschool, doing homework, research for thesis, paying bills, sewing group, YW, and kids, all you really have energy for is sleep. So I really think I give credit to Paige for this one. She has put in countless hours praying, wishing, and begging for a baby for the longest time. All her hard work millions of wishes on stars and countless letters to Santa apparently paid off. (She's got a lot of clout with the bearded fella - so if you want something for next year you might want to bribe her early to include it in her letter(s)). That's it... I'm eight weeks and thrilled. We'll keep praying that everything goes smoothly & the baby is heal...
