Saturday I got my haircut and then A and I headed over to
the open house. We both really liked the
house. The kitchen, living room, and
third bedroom were smaller than I thought they’d be. Not necessarily a bad thing, they were just
smaller than I was expecting. The house
was very very nice. There were lots of
people at the open house and that gave me the impression that the house will
sell quickly. One family seemed very
interested. So I have a feeling that
this won’t end up being our house. I
think we’ll still pursue it, but someone else will probably snatch it up before
we get all of our financing in order. A
bit disappointing. Our timing just seems
to be off. But I guess you never know…
This house is perfect for us in terms of size, location, and price range. One important note – we live on a golf course
and as a result, there are very few homes that allow for fences. I think this one does since it isn’t directly
on the golf course. We’d love to have a
fenced in yard for our dog.***
After that, it was time to head to our nephew’s birthday
party. We couldn’t stay too long since W
goes to bed early, but we all had fun.
On the way home, A got a flat tire.
His second flat in a week! Talk
about bad luck! He ran over some glass
that was in the road on our way to the party and we hadn’t thought much of
it. A stopped and filled up the tire on
our way home and could hear air leaking out.
He knew it’d be flat again soon.
Meanwhile, W had fallen asleep in his car seat. I called my mom and asked if she’d stay with
W while I followed A to the tire store.
It was closed for the night, but the plan was to leave his car there and
come back in the morning to have it fixed.
That way he could avoid putting on the spare tire. W woke up while we got him changed into his
pjs and was very upset. It took awhile
to get him back to sleep. Finally, by
around 8:30, W was asleep, the car was at the tire store, and A and I were back
home. All was good.
Then W woke up around midnight and continued to fall asleep
and wake for the next couple hours. At
this point, I was exhausted and still not feeling well. Thank goodness A was able to eventually get W
to sleep for good. I think falling
asleep in the car threw off his schedule a bit and he’s also getting another
tooth. Not a good night.
The next morning, I felt horrible. My cold seemed worse and I was just
tired. W was also tired and cranky. We spent much of church in the lobby. Starbucks was packed so we went to a nearby
restaurant for breakfast instead. W had
no interest in sitting so that was fun. :P
When we got home, I tried to get W down for a nap. He was not having it. Again, A came to the rescue and let me nap
while he handled a crazy W. They went
for a walk outside and everyone was happy.
I woke up feeling much better and the day was pretty uneventful. W was still cranky, but at least he
eventually napped. The three of us,
along with Addie ended up going for another walk since the weather was finally
decent.
Oh, one more thing – our friends were at church with the
twin girls. Two weeks in a row – very
impressive with twins!! We can’t even
get to church on time with one! They
asked A and I if we’d be the Godparents to one of the twins. We’re so honored and excited! J But how do we choose which twin?!?!
***So I wrote this before speaking with our mortgage
broker. We’re preapproved!! And the mortgage payment with taxes and PMI
rolled in would be doable! Holy Moly!!
