Baby Photo Shoot

Our Sweet Girl!!!

Isn't she precious?!?!?
Kisses!!! She really wanted to eat his cheek!!! But when Carson was awake he was sucking on her shoulder! It was so funny....they feel skin and instantly want to eat!

Shaelynn Noel.....our little Christmas Angel!

We love this little girl so much!

Babies for Christmas....Carson & Shaelynn

They are 2 wks apart!

We took her to her one week check-up and she now weighs 7 lbs. 7 oz.

She's still so little!

Shaelynn Noel Church....has arrived!

She got here on December 20th, 2008 at 10:44 a.m. and weighed 7 lbs. and was 19 in. long!
I had planned to have a natural delivery with no epidural......but she kinda changed the plan.....
we ended up having an emergency C-section after trying to turn her manually, because she was breech! They got her turned and we were starting to get excited about that when they said her heart rate had dropped to 50 and we were heading to the O.R. Everybody was just rushing around me and it was probably the scariest thing I've ever experienced, but they had her out in about 5 minutes and she was doing great! I wouldn't ever recommend a C-section, because I am still feeling pretty rough.....but we are sure glad that everyone is here, healthy, and happy!

My precious little angel baby! Can you believe my 4th child was my smallest and the only one I didn't have to push out?

Mikelle, Tyler, and Austin came to see their new sister and they all just love her! Mikelle is especially happy to have a sister (she'd hold her 24/7 if she could), Austin is very possesive and thinks that she is his....he wants to be independent and hold her all by himself (it's so cute), Tyler is happy to have his little sister here.....he held her once and then he was good! :)

What an adorable little Christmas present!!! We love her so much!

She is soooooo tiny! This newborn outfit I brought to the hospital to bring her home in just drownded her! Her feet only went to the knee spots....Our first day at home......she is 3 days old here.....so precious!!!

Christmas Photo Shoot....

New Christmas Sunday outfits to show off.......this was the lucky first shot!

This is how most of the pics turned out......Austin trying to get up and walk away.....

So I got some cute ones of just Mikelle & Tyler though! (with Austin in the background)

Luckily Daddy got home and was able to get them all laughing so mom could snap the picture!

They love each other so much!!! I love these kids to pieces.....aren't they all adorable?

Shanan had her baby!!!

Shanan and Kelly have a sweet little addition to their family! They look pretty good for being at the hospital since 2:00 in the morning! It was a long night of no sleep!
He was born on December 6th at 11:24 a.m.! Shanan let me come to the delivery....it was amazing!!!

Carson Paul Wasden weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz. and was 19 inches long!

Isn't he so adorable? He is such a good little baby.....he never cries, but he sure does love to suck....he takes a pacifier very well! We are excited about our new little nephew Carson!

Pretty soon he will have a new little cousin just his size!!! Only 2 more wks now! Yea!!!

Turkey Dinner...Turkey Dinner...Gather 'Round...

Daniel was so excited.....he just couldn't wait for a plate!!!!

We had Thanksgiving dinner up at the church so we could all fit around a table (or 3)!

This is trying to get a cute family picture with 3 kids.....you can imagine our next one with 4! :)

We had to get one last picture of our prego bellies, because Shanan is due on the 3rd! Only 2 more days!!! Hopefully she will have it by then, but if all else fails they will start her on the 10th!

This kodak moment was too cute to resist.....still "in love" after 50 years!!! We love Grandma Donna & Grandpa Jay!

The kids had fun on the wiggle cars and the big boys played basketball!

Austin was a little monkey and was content to climb on anything he could find!

What a little cutie!!! He has just about everybody wrapped around his little finger!

Then we had a gingerbread house making contest! Here are a few of the finished products! Mom & Dad's never got a picture because shortly before it was finished it became the casualty of an incoming basketball! Sad :(

Here is Mikelle with the house she and I made together....

Tyler showing off his and Daniel's creation....

Braden & Jackie with their gingerbread house......before it collapsed!

Jaymie & Graydon made a log cabin and probably had the sturdiest, awesomest, prize-winning house!!! The log-like cookies were Graydon's idea and Jaymie's addition was the pink frosting!

Pretty cool, huh? I think they've done this before........

We had a great Thanksgiving! Thank-you to all who helped with the food, the fun, and the great memories!

Silly boy...

This is how I found Austin watching cartoons today!
He was sitting in this little Santa rocking chair we had set out with our decorations last night!

We put up Christmas decor. and watched a christmas movie for FHE last night!

This is who is supposed to be sitting in the chair!!!

And this is Austin telling us what Santa says, "Ho, ho, ho!"

I love this kid!!! It actually reminded us of when Mikelle was that little and she thought that was her special little chair too! :) They grow up way too fast!

I finished my hairbow holder frame....or whatever you want to call it

As you can tell.....I do need another one! Maybe I'll make one to hang in Mikelle's room too!

I love it.....didn't it turn out cute? I'm thinking about adding 2 more hooks to the bottom though.

(because that is not all of the headbands, just the ones I think will be used more often! hehe!) Daniel thinks she'll have a different bow for every day of her life! At least I'll have 2 girls to use them for! That's what I love about the interchangeable headbands and making the bows on clips, so you can use them when they grow out of the headbands! Although I did make some newborn bows that are attached to the headband, because their heads are just so tiny at first!

More projects....

These are my most recent projects I've been working on.....you can't tell I'm still way excited about having a baby girl, can you? Well, I love these flowers I made....they are so adorable and the pink hooks are for hanging headbands on a flower/bow holder frame that I'm still in the process of finishing......so I'll post a picture of that when it's done too! I've even managed to get a little scrapbooking in too, but this is pretty much what my kitchen table has looked like for the last several weeks!

Precious little baby...

This weekend I went to visit Christy (Daniel's sister) and baby Bella! She was only 6 lbs. when she was born, isn't she tiny?
She is so cute.......it just makes it harder for me to wait......6 more weeks

She almost looks chubby with those little cheeks in this pic.....but don't let that fool ya......she has the tiniest little legs and arms...I just couldn't believe how little she was...I'm used to 9 pounders

I only got to enjoy holding her for a minute 'cause I had to pick Daniel up from the Kanab vs. Parowan game (Kanab won.....yea!!!) and head back to St. George where I left my kids!

She is a perfect little angel.....and Christy doesn't mind having her here early since she is healthy and all....lucky girl! :)

The "Eeeewwwwww.....yucky" face!

Rebecca, this pic is for you! (She told me I had to capture this face on camera!)
He makes this face whenever we tell him something is yucky, like a rock or something off the ground that he is wanting to eat! (Or sometimes spiders)

I wasn't sure what he was "eeeewwwwing", so he is now trying to show me!

"It's up there, mom!" (I still couldn't see anything, maybe it was a spider, who knows)

Now, this is just a fun game, 'cause Mom is laughing at me! Ha, ha!!!
