Sean as a black baby...lol and a big guy!

Here is THE SEAN. Look at how big he was! Still is! And that Head! Holy cow!

this is the black baby pic i was telling you all about..... this is Sean just minutes old and believe it or not he was darker than that. he was purple!

HAPPY BIRFDAY THE SEAN!!!!

Today is a sad day.....My baby is officially a toddler. I can't believe it! It just seems like yesterday I brought him home. When Sean was born he was 8lbs 6 oz and 3 weeks early. Yes his head had been in the 95% to now 150+%. When he came out he was puffy and looked black and the look on Trav's and Cindy's(my ob nurse i've know my whole life...yeah it was awkward at first....i should've shaved! I KNOW OK!) face was priceless! LOL That was the closest to God I've ever been. AMAZING!!!! All those first time fears all seem so long ago. It's like i've had him for forever! I really am surprised he has lived this long. LOL I never thought such a smelly pooper would consume my whole life like he has. I'm a terrible mom because everything he does is so funny. I have a hard time disciplining him because i can't keep a straight face and he knows it! He has been such a HUGE blessing and a tender mercy from a Heavenly Father with a loving but sick sense of humor. Sean has kept my sanity and my self intact and through all the terrible things I have had to endure these past 18 months he's still a loving golden child and reminds me of the simplicity of gratitude and of life. I know that that little spirit was sent here just for me and am eternally grateful and indebted to my Heavenly Father. I lub jew The Sean! Happy Birthday big guy!

I know...i'm a terrible mom!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I just had to! Look at his little butt crack! He got a "cycle(as he calls it)" from grandma and popa and after he ran out of the bathroom nekked that's what he hopped up on. there's mor but i'm saving those for his wedding video! lol doesn't it make you laugh?! lol

Here's my little Tiger Woods/Gap Model.....Dang isn't he such a looker?

This is how he was relaxing after church! Serious though! I might make it a home business of making cute babies and selling them on ebay! lol Yeah right! i bet the money's good though, yeah?

Sean's Had a very merry Christmas! lol

Here are a few pics from christmas. I was lucky enough to have my parents come up. With David on a mission and everyone else spending christmas with in-laws they were on their own. SO since we couldn't come down there they came to us. It was so fun having them and watching Sean slowly explain to popa how the xbox works and that he prefers to watch movies in his room and so what if he likes to change movies 30 times in 10 minutes. Sean's been so patient in training them. hahaha











Here Sean is trying to explain who The Hulk is. My Dad just looks like he needs to be rescued or that his intelligence has just been insulted by a 2yr old! lol

With every present Sean unwrapped he had to "seriously" tear the paper away and then read the back of each thing BEFORE it could be taken out of the packaging.......

SEE!?! Why So Serious Sean? It's just a toy for crying out loud!

He kinda looks annoyed with the whole santa brought me a stocking....

Here is Joshua, Sean, and Jessah at Gina and Blair's poor unfortunate souls dinner! lol It Was a lot of fun filled with singing from all the smart kids and food that was too Delicious. I'm really blessed to have the Smart's in my family! Believe it or not Blair!

Jessah is a good cousin! She as well as her brothers and sister all just are so good to Sean! He LOVES when they get to babysit. Nothing better than 5 kids doing whatever he wants and feeding him candy for dinner.....I'm a little jealous though......Sean said "I love Mriah(Sean for Mariah)" AND he's NEVER said it to ME! In fact that was the first time he's ever said that phrase! Maybe i should feed him candy for dinner! lol I LOVE MY FAMILY!

Fun with the new camera!

Tell me you don't just love a chunky baby! lol This is Carlos Thiago. He's bethy's baby. at 5 months he's already 19 lbs! We like to call him Choncho! hahahahaha He is such a sweet baby! He kinda looks like Babe Ruth with that baseball hat on.

He is such a happy baby!

Bless you my child! Maybe it's just a baby thing but Sean LOVES to hold Carlito!

This is Sean givin loves. he doesn't kiss but when you say "kisses!" he leans his forehead in for a kiss. That's what he is doing in the above pic.

Look they have the same look on their faces! hahahahaha Thank heaven for babies!

He goes from big kid to BIG BABY!

Here's a sweet pic! When Sean was about 15 months he woke up from a nap as usual but as if a switch had turned this devil of a child who was once my angel was taking over.....thus the terrible 2s had started. Then about a month ago maybe 2 I got what's in the pic above. I called the terrible bastard 2s! he used to scream when he heard the word no and now he drops quietly like a limp puppet and goes OH! He's not even 2 yet! I'm afraid what will happen Dec 29th for his actual 2nd birthday......lol gotta love it though right? He definately is the spice of life! lol

Sean LOVES Halo! He knows how to shoot, throw grenades, and sometimes walk around. What's really impressive is he knows how to start up ATV on the PS2 and "race" four-wheelers. He does that when know one will set Halo up for him. So for christmas my parents bought him v-tech so he can play learning games and well it's harder to play when you can't read BUT when he opened the v-tech the first thing he said was: "HALO!? HOO! HOO!(that's sean for Woohoo)" So here he is playing Halo. My little gamer! lol He looks effin 6 yrs old with a pacy in his mouth! lol He also knows his dc comics. he is obsessed with Hulk and Superman and Iron man and Spiderman and Batman! LOVES, LOVES, LOVES them! I know i'm raising a mouth breather that's gonna live in my basement for forever! Doen't he look annoyed at me for bothering him during his game? Just like his dad....

what a bunch of misfits!

Here are some of the family pics we hurriedly took over thanksgiving.... Sean's head looks GINORMOUS! He seriously has the head of an adult elephant! This is our first family photo EVER by the way. I know Sean's almost 2.....i'm terrible.

This was the first time in years that we were all together. All except Juan...can you tell we photoshopped him in? lol hilarious! Poor Juan. you snooz you lose!(he hadn't gotten to cbad yet when we did these....) Look Bethy and Mikey hae the same hair! hahahahahaha anyways laugh with not at! lol

Mom Sense is strong in this one....

so saturday sean went in for a hair cut. i was growing it out but then i looked around and every little kid has long hair! Yeah sooooooooo original! anyways so we went to chop it off into a high and tight and sean would have none of it. usually he does great but this time he pitched a fit. the lady jacked his hair up nasty! He had long ass hair on top and like a 2 on the sides. TERRIBLE! I though i could do better than that!(Should've known then.Curse that mom sense!)Anyways so i bought a set of clippers and went to work. sean was way good for me too. As i went to buzz the top with a 4 i forgot to extend the clippers thingy and ended up buzzing his whole head! now he looks like a cancer kid! I feel terrible. but every one's got to go through it right? I see mom's who have cut the crap out of their kids hair and thought how could they possible do that to their kids.....now i know. there's a hormone in every mom's head that turns on right at birth that gives you false sense of knowledge in cosmetology. that's jacked up! Seriously I have been humble. i'll never do it again.....unless i forget and do it again which will happen. so why do i bother...

Sean's got Talent!

Who says farts aren't funny! lol This is what Sean does all day. He is soooo obnoxious! I LOVE IT! hahaha

Sean gave me an Owen Wilson Nose for Xmas!

So Sean was just bouncin off the walls last night and that huge...orange on a tooth pic.....adult sized head so how found my face! He didn't mean too but I wanted to beat him like he did fo sho! Of course I didn't. I couldn't even be mad. I tried real hard but I was just dumb founded that his huge head broke my nose! That Son-of-a-Bitch!
What had happened was:
He jumped on the couch and caught some good air and then land his head on my face/nose. All I heard was a loud crunch....It blacked both my eyes and caused a bit of swelling and i feel like a piece of bone was shoved up in my brain(although maybe i could be like "flowers for algernon" and get genius smarts.) I have the worst head ache! If it gets worse I guess i might need to go to the doctor. Don't worry my nose doesn't look like Owen Wilson's! That was like the first thing i did was check to see if my nose was crooked. Mainly because I didn't want to face Blair and JR at work the next day and have them make fun of me. lol

Anyways Sean's been real cute about it. He roughly grabs my hurty nose and says "momma OW?!" and points to his nose and says the same.
God can be cruel and has a sick sense of humor if not we wouldn't have children. Maybe i'll stop at just one.......

Did I mention Nanny David is going on a Mission?

I just realized that I hadn't posted that my youngest brother got his mission call. Well Nanny David as we call him (for some reason all the babies just love him and he is so patient with them) is going to Riverside California. Yes it's not foreign BUT he's going to the land of milk and honey if ya know what i mean. This kid has chased what ever girl he can get his hands on and none of 'em would return the gesture and now he is goin where there are hotties and he's got the "untouchable missionary" and surely he'll have them chasing him and the best part is.....HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT! hahahahahahaha poor guy. God really does have a sick sense of humor! lol anyways he reports to the MTC Dec. 10. Way to go NANNY DAVE! I am so proud of the brother! Sean adores him and has since he was born. From the moment Sean met David he has been attached. David was the first person he recognized that wasn't me. Peas and Carrots they are! lol

Kristen's baby is finally here!

Milo Brynlee Mecham was 6lbs 14oz, 19 ½ inches, born at 5:35 pm on 11/11/08 (11 days late!!!)

This a pic Johnny Sent me. So for all you guys...now you know what they can make! lol here she is! She's a cutie that's for sure! Kristen had it a little ruff cuz Milo was butt first and they had to flip the baby to birth her so Kristen is sore but both are happy and healthy! Ok Lindsay you're up! lol

Kristen's Givin The Birth!

For those of you who know or knew Kristen (Greer) Mecham she's gettin induced as we speak! Supposedly she's having a girl and her name will be Milo. Poor thing is 10 days late! That by far has got to be the worst. the end of pregnancy is hard enough and to have to deal with surpassing your due date has gotta be worse. It seems to me like once you pass the due date that your baby will never come and your stuck peeing every five minutes or when you cough or laugh or breath for the rest of your life! lol I got lucky busting The Sean out 3 weeks early. Although had i made to my due date they would have had to crack me like a walnut. He was 8lbs 7oz and with the world's largest head. they said he would've been 10lbs maybe more had i made it full term. Thank you Jesus for that kind and tender mercy! lol *side note...... Can you believe The Sean's gonna be 2?!?!

Anyways babies are great! I'm excited to see what Kristen and Johnny can make! They will be great parents. Also I'm excited for Lindsay and Todd next month! The whole birthing part isn't all that bad and once that baby comes it's the closest to god any human can get(unless your a prophet). I wanna say it's magical but i didn't realize it until like 3 hours later when i was all alone and after the shock that i had a kid started to settle....Everyday i just love that kid more each second! It tickles me pink to watch him grow and learn and fight and throw fits and tries new things! Awesomeness! YAY for babies and Families!

Calling All Buckners!

Hey Family!
Starting This Month Bethy and I are going to try to gather UP TO DATE family photos for Grandma and Grandpa's 70th wedding aniversary. If at all possible I would like to have digitol(Jpeg or TiFF format) or hard copies (in size 5x7 or 8x11) by April or early May of 09. You can email me at:
ashley_diane_@hotmail.com

You now have 6-7 months! We'll start making phone calls around February FYI! You have been warned!
Thanks! now hop on it! LOL

Something to think about....

We now live in a Nation that has lost ACOUNTABILITY and bordline A-Moral.

God Bless America....right

During this political season let's be reminded of these wise words.
"You cannot strengthen the weak
by weakening the strong.
You cannot help the small men
by tearing down the big men. You cannot help the poor
by destroying the rich.
You cannot lift the wage earner up
by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot keep out of trouble
by spending more than your income.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man
by inciting class hatreds.
You cannot establish security
on barrowed money.
You cannot build character and courage
by taking away man's
initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently
by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."
---Abraham Lincoln---

I know this probably gonna haunt Sean, BUT wouldn't it be nice if we all could free ball it like kids? Although now wouldn't be all that fun to look at. The stretch marks, saggy boobies, and that little extra weight that keeps coming back to haunt me might not be so fun. On second thought, nevermind. LOL Isn't that a picture of white trash? I just love that kid more each second!

Sean's trip to the zoo in Albuquerque!

this is the face Sean made everytime you pointed out an animal...I think he's being a smart ass. I have no idea where he learned that...HONEST!

Doesn't this remind you of that Superdad thing they sell at Deseret?

Sean Loves to feed the ducks!

This is when Sean found out it was time to go go...

Evangelina's Wedding!

I love this one cuz this is what he does when he's mad. He tells you exactly why he's mad...If I spoke Sean I would know but I don't so we battle...lol

Yeah he's talking to himself.....

He almost looks annoyed....

To Sexy! One Day he'll lose da'Paci!!!

He just adores his Popa. Look Sean's got his ankles crossed! HA!

Look it's an "action" shot...lol

HELP! He's grinding away my sleepy time!

The Sean started grinding his teeth in his sleep! AAARGH! It wakes me up everytime! I think this is worse than him waking me up every 2hours to feed when he was an infant. *sad moment....i don't have a baby anymore :'( Anyways it hurts my teeth just thinking about it. I read that stress can cause it but I've tried my best to eliminate what could be causing him stress but it doesn't seem to help it. I don't know what to do. I don't want him to grind his little teefies away.....Poor guy....Poor me! lol

Please Vote or Shut your mouth!

If you don't vote this election then you have no right to complain of anything going on in America. If you are on any government program it had better be temporary or I'm coming after you. I'm tired of belly ache-rs that sit on their ignorant ASSes bitching about the War they know nothing about or the Economy driven by media not money. (Actually it is money but only to the benefits of media power houses.)As they collect their welfare checks and free medical care. And so you know We do have universal health care for all you Michael Moore's out there. It's called WIC and AHCCS and CHIP and Medicaid and countless other state and federal programs designed to assist not be taken advantage of; but where people like me are forced to pay out of pocket everything. Such has become the American way. Those Ignorants just cost us $700 Billion. I can see now why soldiers of my this generation are coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan ticked off and disappointed with bad attitudes. I would too if I fought a war, watched my friends die and had to go through all that only to come home to a bunch of fat bellied ungrateful Americans. Way to say thanks to those who have sacrificed for this country: past and present. I'm sure they are all sitting next to Jesus saying" I died for this!?" with tears in their eyes. So Thanks guys for your stupidity and selfishness. Way to reward bad behaviors. So vote even if you think it doesn't make a difference. At least you can say you tried and have bitching rights. Those of you that don't Screw you and shut your mouth!


Thanks for letting me rant.....I'm done. oh and if Osama I mean Obama gets elected I'm burning the flag and moving to Mexico. It really is the end of times and a once great nation should we elect Obama. Sure Mcain isn't that great but at least you know what you get with him...

This is The Sean trying to break dance. Watch then end! it is effin HILARIOUS! lol He's way to smart me thinks!

So Sean thinks he's a Funny Man!

Got Sean Bathed and ready for bed but he did not want his shirt on as a shirt. He cried and screamed until i let him dress himself. This is how he wanted to were it. By the way...yes i know it's a white trash tank top and it says"i get my muscles from my dad." OK sheesh!

This is how you sit'nSleep!

So there I was myspacin away when Sean decided to sit by me and see what I was doin. some time went by and Sean was quiet(which was unusual) and so I looked over at him....this is what I saw. sorry it's with my phone. Sean decided to kill the lcd screen on my camera. Maybe he did it for time like these...lol it makes me laugh everytime I look 'em.

I miss my baby!

Sorry I don't have any cute pics to show. Sean went to see grandma and papa for a week. I thought I would welcome the break. Not only free of baby but of the bigger baby Travis. Instead I have found myself lonely and bored to tears. I know Travis went down to Carlsbad to help my momma out with some caterings but we all know it was a ploy to get Sean. I swear mom only loves me because I just happend to have given birth to THE Sean. I swear since the day he was born grandma and papa have been slowly winning over The Sean to get rid of me! I'm a person too, ya know! Not just a baby making machine! lol I feel so used!!! Although I've been thinking about making a home business on the ebay selling The Sean replicas. He Really is the COOLEST, CUTEST, not so smart but hopfully that improves, BABY EVER!

tell me he's not perfect...

This is Sean trying to be funny! hahaha

This is one of my favorites! He fell asleep with his favorite toy. Man I love this kid!!!!!

escape from the heat!!

Yes I know he has a big head! He loves the water that's for sure!

So I went out and bought one of those body suit life jackets that are an inch shy of camel toe on children. Sacrifice for saftey i guess....

This is why we moved closer to the sun... so we can swim everyday!!!! YAY FOR H2O!!!
He kinda looks like those alien things off of Halo....what?! I mean i have know idea what Halo is...

He's a kickin away!!!!

Anyways this is how we spend our evenings. Sean knows now to run up stairs to grab a swim diaper like a dog runs to get his leash. lol this is how we expell the last of his energy to ensure a good nights sleep. works like a charm....

Here I go again.

We are now in Phoenix (scottsdale actually)! It is hot as hell here and it never cools down! Seriously. It's 11 o'clock at night and still 108 degrees. I hate it! As for everything else I actually like here. I love my job. Although I miss The Sean all day. School starts in a month and I'm a little nervous on how i'm going to manage my time. But the sacrifice will be worth it in the long run. I just hope it doen't interfere to much with my kiddo. I love my ward and thus life is good.

sometimes i miss my baby! (3mo)






THE SEAN!

.....and yet i still love that little guy....sean at 9 months.

Us before baby....

for starters...

Travis and I have been married 2.5 years. We've lived in our home town of Carlsbad New Mexico for the past 2 years. We moved to SLC Utah in August of last year and we stayed with friends until we found a place in Layton which is closer to Trav's job. We have a 16 month old demon child. His name is THE SEAN. I refer to him as THE SEAN because he is THE SEAN! He's a hoot! Sometimes I can't believe god thought I was mature enough to get to have my own demon child. Or he's got a really mean sense of humor....i haven't decided yet. Please don't comment on his gigantic head. I know he has the head of an adult and yes they did crack me like a walnut to get him out! Actually i don't care. just remeber if you comment on mine i'll comment on yours.....and i'll start by saying you have an ugly baby! you have been warned...Anyways life is alright for the moment.
