Frustrated...

So, I normally only post the happy, fun things we do. But today has just been a weird day. I've also been super frustrated all day. I can't even pinpoint exactly why I'm frustrated though and that makes me even more frustrated. So, I've decided to make a list of things that are frustrating me today in hopes that it will make me feel better!

- My normal shift is from 6am-3pm. At the last minute on Friday, we were scheduled a late shift so today I'm working from 10am-7pm.

- Over the weekend was Veteran's Day and normally, schools are CLOSED today. But are we? NOPE. I'm stuck here at work until 7! Also, my mother in law invited us over for a yummy dinner tonight that I really wanted to go to since we haven't seen them much lately. But, since I have to work late I can't go.

- I had 6 students start classes today. That's a lot in one day. I've been overly busy today.

- We had so many unexpected bills this month (Craig's freakin MOTOR blowing!). It would have been easy to ask to borrow money from my parents, but we sucked it up and are so broke until Thursday. Besides, I wouldn't want to add to the list of people that are currently using their money. We were doing so good with saving our money, too. Now, most of our savings will go to replacing his motor and we will be back to square one with saving. We've also been on the fast track at paying off my student loans for the past 3 months, paying $640 a month towards them. Only one more payment of $320 and they will be gone forever! YEAH!

- We are officially in the double digit countdown (99 days!!) until our baby is due. As exciting as it is, I can't help but be scared at the same time.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a little bit better of a day!!

This is how bored I get at work...

1. Where did you meet your husband? We met on LDSlinkup.com. After a few emails back and forth (some more rude than others), we decided to meet and have been together ever since.

2. What is the first thing you said to your husband? I don't remember what I first said to him, but I remember what my first thought of him was... uh yeah, he's too short.

3. Where was your first date? Neither of us remember our first actual date. We hung out a lot at my house before we ever went out and did anything.

4. Where was your first kiss? Gosh, this is so bad. On my bed! Well, he was on my bed, I wasn't.

5. Did you have a long or short courtship/engagement? We dated for 9 months and were engaged for 6 weeks.

6. Where did you get engaged? At the Mesa Temple

7. Where did you get married? At a church in Gilbert

9. THE HONEYMOON...We stayed the weekend in North Scottsdale then a few months later, went on a cruise.

10. Who's turn is it next? Tairi's!

Boo!

The pictures say it all. This was our attempt at carving pumpkins. I carved the bat and Craig did the face thing. His is wayyy better than mine. I don't have much patience for stuff like this!

23 weeks

I can finally say that I love being pregnant. I'm sure it won't last much longer, but for now I'm enjoying it. The first couple of months were definitely rough and I know the last few weeks will be the same. Last weekened we registered at Babies R' Us and that was a headache! There were so many things to choose from we couldn't even make up our minds on what we needed/wanted.

For the last couple of weeks, I have been feeling her constant movements. She's definitely an active little girl! She seems to sleep around dinner time, but she's awake and kicking right around the time that I want to go to bed! Craig has also been able to feel her kicking and she seems to react a lot better to his voice than mine. I think we've decided on a name for her, but we're not totally set on it. It's really the only name that we have both agreed on. We've been set on her middle name since the time we found out we were having a girl. We are passing on my middle name, Suzanne (said like Sue-Zayne). This is my Grandma Boyster's first name and I've always known I wanted to pass it on to my daughter. So, we we've been trying to find a first name that goes well with Suzanne. All the names we liked started with an A, and we wouldn't want our little girl to have the initials of ASS. So, we have decided on Eden Suzanne Shaver.

Sorry for the lame cell phone picture of my belly!! I took it last week while I was at work and haven't gotten around to taking one with our digital camera. Maybe next week. The bathroom stalls make for a beautiful background, don't they?

Making Memories

This morning, while bored to death at work, I was going through some pictures I haven't looked at in a while. So, here's a random post with some pictures from the past couple of years.

Our first picture together (May 2006)


Us being silly (May 2006)... My hair was hiding a giant hickey he gave me on the middle of my forehead.

Having too much fun!

This is what I was afraid of!! It's been a little over 2 weeks since we found out we're having a girl and I've already started shopping. It's so addicting but so much fun. Luckily I went back to work and I'm able to support this bad habit. Here are a couple of my favorite things I've bought so far.

A cute pink knitted dress


This girl better love shoes


A couple of cute bracelets. They are so tiny!!
