April in Arizona

I hope everyone had a great Easter. I surprised Ryan and drove to visit him in California for the holiday weekend. This past week I started my sixth month of pregnancy. It's crazy how fast time seems to be flying by. I am doing well and so is the baby. Ryan came this past weekend to visit me and to take his state licensure exam. He passed so I am very proud of him! He starts working at a hospital here in Tempe May 16th. He will move here offically May 9th. I'm already counting down the days! I miss having him around all the time.

I have been temping as a hygienist and enjoying it. It's great to work in different settings and get a paycheck at the end of every day. The only thing that could make it better is having a set work schedule. Sometimes I'll get called the morning of and be expected to be there in thirty minutes which can be stressful. I am working through two different agencys to increase my work opportunities. I plan to work until mid July and then I'll take time off until the end of the year to be with the baby.

Arizona is great, although I am not really looking forward to the hot summer here. This past week it has been in the high 80s to low 90s and it's only April! We have been looking at houses and are getting excited to make out first purchase this year. Hope all of you have a great upcoming week. I miss you all and look forward to seeing some of you May 8th for our baby shower. Thanks for all the votes on her name spelling. So far "Riley" and "Ryleigh" are tied for first place. We probably won't be able to decide until she is born but we really appreciate your inputs!

On a side note, while Ryan was visiting this past weekend we went to Dave and Busters (which is a restaurant with games just in case you didn't know). There was a photobooth there called The Gene Machine. It takes a picture of both you and your significant other and then meshes the pictures together to figure out what your baby will look like. We did it just for fun and I posted the results below. Pretty funny huh? It will be interesting to see what she really will look like!
