September 29 2011 -Max Cardiff Buchanan

On thursday September 29th at 1:30 am came little Max Cardiff Buchanan.. I went into the hospital around 8:30 pm wed night with contractions (non painful) 5-7 mins apart. They told me that i wasn't progressing enough so i could wait it out or go home... so we went home.
As soon as I got home i had to go right back to the hospital in hard labor..! Adam zoomed through town again trying not to crash. They met me with a wheelchair and said "well i guess we should have kept you here:)" It was a great delivery and Max came 2 hours later with a nice comfy epidural:)
Adam was a true champ! every step of the way looking out for me.. and can i just say ...I LOVE delivery day!.. The snuggliest little soul, who you've always known, is finally in your arms.. How did you ever live with out this person before?
Max came out as calm as ever.. not screaming , just looking around and taking in the entire experience.. just as we were.
We had some great ladies in our ward stay at our house with our kids until Grandma came the next morning.
Then Ryan and Beckham came to the hospital the next morning to meet their new baby brother.. Beckham was instantly in love with him.. he couldnt stop saying how little he was and "so handsome"...like me:) Ryan was a little leary at first.. she had to check me out to see if i was ok and at first wouldnt touch me or the baby... she finally did and now i cant stop her from kissing him or snuggling him.. she really watches out for him :)
Proud dad-
His first Bath..
Lets not forget to mention his AWESOME hair!! I finally got a kid with some hair i can do something with:)

I just love his guts:)
