Free time

These past couple days have given me a lot of down time and a lot of free time. The result? I started a project. :) So I've gotten bored of my red and yellow living room and decided I wanted to go blue brown and cream instead. But, paintings are expensive and we are not in a place to spend money on that. So....I painted one myself. lol Matt found this to be funny, but I was serious! We now disagree on whether this painting should go up or if we should keep the old one until we can buy one. I need your help!!! Please vote on what one you like better lol and do NOT vote for mine in the sake of not hurting my feelings because seriously, they won't be hurt!!! Sorry about the bad picture quality :)

OLD WALL:

NEW WALL:

Keep in mind, this is only one wall lol theres more candles, pillows, mirrors, etc. to add.

Thanks!

Changes

For those of you who do not know, last week my Dr. discovered that I am miscarrying. They do not know the cause, but they do know that even though I was 10 weeks, the pregnancy stopped progressing at 5 weeks. This weekend I experienced horrible pains and was admitted to the ER for a dnc. (I think thats what its called) It sped up the process and relieved me of alot of pain. I was put on a medicine 7 times more powerful than morphine (WOA) and was able to go home that same night. Matt and I are very shocked and saddened by what has happened, but we know that all of this has a reason and purpose to it. This entire experience has taught us so much and brought us closer together. What a roller coaster of emotions. We are now more excited and more prepared to start a healthy family someday. The pain is not so bad, I must say that the effects of the breathing tube have given me the most pain today with a sore throat and chest. I will be glad when this is over and so much more prepared for the next time...The pictures above you can thank my mother for lol the two smiles are fake :) the middle one is how I truly felt all drugged up. Thank you for everyones support in what has happened, I am so glad to have such a close and loving family

Ok....

This pictures better :)

Pumpkin Time

Matt and I went to the pumpkin patch this weekend! We went to Lee's farm, it was a big place with everything a kid could want ha! Mini ferris wheel, pony rides, petting zoo, hay maze...the works! It was fun and we got there when it wasn't raining (miracle). BEFORE:
This is my lovely advanced pumpkin carving haha Its hard to see when its not lit but its the Phoenix Suns logo. Go steve!!!!

This is Matt's, he got a 'special' pumpkin :) Sour face!

Hope everyone has a happy, safe, and dry Halloween!

Work

I have successfully completed my first week back at work. lol It is not a fun or exciting job, that's for sure. I'm on the phones all day long...as many of you know, I'm not exactly a 'phone-person' to begin with so, this should be interesting. The nice thing is that I really get along with the girl that I am working with, so its not AS dreadful to go to work :)

My Dog is turning into a terrorist. Seriously. And I'm pretty positive its because she got so used to us being home all of the time and being able to take her on walks every day. Ever since we started working she is so annoying to come home to :) I still love her of COURSE but her energy level is 100x's higher than mine!!! I still try to go on walks every day when I get home but half the time its RAINING. I hate rain. And its only going to get worse....

So I've been name-thinking. I know I have a ways to go but Sara requires me to text her a name suggestion every DAY to get feedback :) haha fun game. And even though she hates half of these I still love them. So here.....Jade, Caden, Kaydence, Brevyn, Rocco, Ruby, Sophia, Mae, Finn

Also, I'm starting to freak out about once the baby is born and what I'm going to do. I've never believed in daycare, but I know I will have to be making some sort of income after he or she is born. I wish I could come up with a work from home job. That would be so ideal. So anyone with suggestions please help.

Aye...

Tomorrow matt and I finally get back to work. I'm not excited about my office job, but I am incredibly excited for the 1st couple paychecks. They will be a weight lifted off our shoulders thats for sure!

We went to our new ward today and I think we're going to like it. LOTS of crying babies in sacrament; which might be a bad thing to most but good for me! :) I hope we can meet some young couples pretty soon.

I've decided I'm going to take a picture in the same outfit every month until I explode with a baby. lol so lets all take a moment of silence to remember me before I expand...

Thank you. :)

Matt was in a wedding over the weekend.... this is rehearsal dinner with all the groomsmen and groom (Rhinelanders - have no clue how to spell it but if you haven't been, I had the most amazing fondue of my entire lifetime!!!)

Dorks. Matt and his long time friend Aaron having a 'moment' and no matt did not shrink, Aaron is over 7ft tall lol

It'd be cool if we could take a decent picture together huh? :)

Surprise....

Yes....we're pregnant. Completely unexpected and unplanned, but, we're pregnant. I'm approx. 6 weeks along and still can't believe it. So, anyone with advice, feel FREE to share it because it has never crossed my mind that I would be pregnant at 21! There's no stopping it now :) The very approximate due date is May 31st '08 (also my birthday ha).
