We love dogs (or just dog food)... and snake, oh my

Hi Abbey... whatcha doin? (notice she is covered in mud from spending time in my back yard - if there is dirt/mud her tracking device goes off full force)

ummm... don't mind me mom, I got a hankerin' for a little puppy chow.

Yep. That hits the spot every time. It tastes so much better on your hands and knees. 
Piper's looking at me like, "So can I have Abbey's food since she's eating mine?" Keep in mind that usually Abbey will shut the laundry room door first so I won't bug her or make her stop eating dog food.

Paige would gladly trade almost anything for a puppy. 

If she had her way she would fill up our entire back yard with nothing but pups.

ooohhh... how did my daughters turn out to be such animal lovers?

Oh, maybe it is their dad fault, this is his new pet, "Sam Boba-fett Buchanan" the ball python snake. It's just a small thing, maybe 2 feet long. We watched it eat it's first mouse the other day, it was disturbing and so mesmerizing at the same time.

girls & princess

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
