school pictures Nov 2009


He's such a little rogue.


I LOVE this picture - she wanted to wear her tap shoes and I love how her toes are pointed.


I never get over how long this baby's hair is.


This is my favorite one of James, it's genuine and sweet, but you can still see the mischief in his eyes.


This girl just gets prettier every year. She is everything I always wanted to be, but never was.


This is my favorite of Abbey. She looks a little pouty, I don't know why she always gets what she wants.


He is either bare foot or a flipflop boy, he takes after me - our feet can't breathe in shoes.


She didn't want her hair flat ironed but obliged me this once. I love it when she poses.


This baby is just pure joy. She has been a blessing to this family, as cheesy as that sounds - she brings out the best in us and we do everything we can to make her smile.


The lighting & coloring is not typical in this picture. It reminds me of a picture from my moms yearbook in the 70's all love child and peace.


No. I think this one is my favorite of Abbey. Sometimes she just gives you these looks like she is not amused and will not grant you a smile despite how much you make a fool of yourself. I know I'm a lucky mommy, always making a fool of myself...

These were all taken by my good friend Jenna from Jameson photos.

girls & princess

Image
Abbey loves jumping out of the tub and streaking through the house every chance she can get. I found her in the bathroom brushing her teeth on such an occasion. Paige spent a Saturday with achievement day girls at the church. They did mini-classes and held a luncheon.  Paige came home wearing this cute banner that said "Miss Fabulous" - she had a goodie bag, a rose, and a pretty picture they had taken of her in a crown. What a gorgeous princess! A few days later we had a princess day. Actually once a week we have boys/girls day. Where the kids get a play date. These girls got all dolled up. They had a blast. Singing! Dancing! and having soooo much fun.

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

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
